The article showed Ember 1.9 coming in dead last because of code size. 2.0 is supposed to be a little better but do you really think it's going to be ahead of the curve? It seems pretty unlikely... I hope you'll say more.

To be fair to Ember here - Ember includes Ember itself, Ember Data and jQuery in that payload. React is just React - you'll probably want to include Redux (2KB) or Alt (33KB) and then potentially a whatwg-fetch polyfill or superagent, normalize and other libs to (possibly) fill out some jQuery features (Zepto @ 9.1KB), if not jQuery itself.
Ember 2.0 came out after 1.13, so there's 4 versions between 1.9 and 2.0.
1.13 added a bunch of deprecation warnings to all the features they were going to strip out, and 2.0 only removed code previously marked as deprecated. So maybe not far ahead of the curve, but they're at least taking steps to reduce their imprint.
