It's not exactly small, but I use a Zefal HPX with my road bike. It's able to get up to 120psi (and beyond) with ease, and relatively quickly. It can mount under the top or seat tubes of your frame. (You can get a little plastic stopper-thingy if your frame doesn't let it fit conveniently -- the pump has a spring-loaded head that usually lets it fit snug along tubes.)

I can't comment on CO2 inflators; haven't used them. If small is your thing, though, I'd think they would be a better option than those itty bitty pumps you see -- they (mini pumps) are usually quite useless for high pressures.
