It is the size of packages what matters. In most cases debug symbols
in -dbg packages much larger than stripped package itself. Just random
package that I maintain:

$ apt-cache show libgammu2 libgammu2-dbg | egrep 'Package:|^Size:'
Package: libgammu2
Size: 423010
Package: libgammu2-dbg
Size: 972178
