In reply to spenser:
Thanks Spenser, I can see that tiny is fashionable, but I'm happy to have a bigger sack as the weight of light stuff isn't the problem, only the volume. I can make up the difference in body weight (at one point in my climbing career I lost 3 stone so reckon I have 20kg "in hand" to play with ... or even in sandwiches (maybe not unrelated!). Or water. But seriously -absence of faff is a big help to my possibly diminishing cognitive capacity.
I don't carry a lot of extras -maybe a bothy bag, a malt loaf, a jacket and a fairly large rack, -but access and usability without dropping anything count for a lot more than compactness. I even wear gaiters unashamedly.
Deuter 45+'s look promising...
