From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (05 January 2017) [foldoc]:
software bloat
bloat
The result of adding new features to a program
or system to the point where the benefit of the new features
is outweighed by the extra resources consumed (RAM, disk
space or performance) and complexity of use. Software bloat
is an instance of Parkinson's Law: resource requirements
expand to consume the resources available. Causes of software
bloat include second-system effect and {creeping
featuritis}. Commonly cited examples include Unix's "ls(1)"
command, the X Window System, BSD, Missed'em-five,
OS/2 and any Microsoft product.
