Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-6247:
-------------------------------------
Here are the calculations for current lucene branch_5x.
Instead of a 144MB binary release, it could be 24MB.
{noformat}
Current: 144,919,796 bytes
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rmuir rmuir 67144315 Feb 14 08:38 lucene-5.1.0-SNAPSHOT.tgz
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rmuir rmuir 77775481 Feb 14 08:38 lucene-5.1.0-SNAPSHOT.zip
-Javadocs: 122,022,758 bytes
(this means: don't include javadocs in the binary release. they are on the
website,
and users who need a local copy can build one with 'ant javadocs')
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rmuir rmuir 60947629 Feb 14 08:42 lucene-5.1.0-SNAPSHOT.tgz
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rmuir rmuir 61075129 Feb 14 08:42 lucene-5.1.0-SNAPSHOT.zip
-Javadocs -3rdPartyJars: 48,935,497 bytes
(this means: also don't include dependent third party jars. basic usage of
lucene
like running the demos does not require them. but several advanced modules
have huge
ones. Instead we could just clearly document what versions, for people not
using
a dependency manager)
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rmuir rmuir 24405986 Feb 14 08:48 lucene-5.1.0-SNAPSHOT.tgz
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rmuir rmuir 24529511 Feb 14 08:48 lucene-5.1.0-SNAPSHOT.zip
-Javadocs -3rdPartyJars -Zip: 24,405,986 bytes
(this means: also don't include the .zip. Its totally redundant. Welcome to
2015).

> artifacts are half a gigabyte
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-6247
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6247
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Robert Muir
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 5.0
>
>
> This is a growing problem and now, its spun out of control.
> The latest release artifacts are half a gigabyte. sorry, I am against adding
> more retries to the smoke tester and continuing down the same path
> (LUCENE-6231).
> Instead I open this blocker issue to discuss fixing this. Whenever i tried to
> fix it before (e.g. removing zips), people complained at me "what are you
> trying to fix" and wouldn't let me minimize it in the slightest.
> Now the problem is clear, we have a blocker issue to discuss it.
