It is all about leverage. Longer boom(stick) = less leverage, but greater reach. Shorter boom = more leverage and therefore, more power to dig through harder or heavier material faster. Most of the time when people bring in a big excavator (C 365, 385, etc.) they are looking for production in moving large quantities of material efficiently. For that, smaller stick is better. But sometimes you want the reach of a longer stick to dig deeper or reach farther (an advantage is wet terrain).
LOL...No wonder it took him so long to load! Everyone knows you dont load 180 degrees!!LOL..I would like to meet this operator. Funniest video of someone loading i have ever seen!!!!LOL
In this case he didn't, have much of a choice. They where finiching up, in that corner, and there where no other way out, so he had too load that way.
Yeeee ME is maximal power.

y are the booms where the bucket is connected always so small on the big trackhoes?

Well not always, in this case its because, it is the ME (Mass Excavating) moddel, it has a shorter arm, so that it can handel a bigger bucket.
Every manufacturer makes a ME moddel in there big series

longer front ( boom & stick ) = less ass (weight)

ME series means Mass Excavator...also the short stick... which means more power when excavating...

Yea I must agree Volvo 40T is the only thing that will compare to a CAT 740 or the old 400E
