Can we do it at finer granularity than that? There's a lot under content
and dom that aren't critical.

Also, reducing the number of directories that are PGO/LTCG should mean that
the rate of growth decreases proportionally. Even more than proportionally,
if we flip our default for entirely new modules to be non-PGO/LTCG, as I
assume we would.

you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your

life as a ransom for many.” [Matthew 20:25-28]
