Bwuh? I'm seeing a reduction to 11.6MB (10.5 with ultra compression).
I used the standard settings. After tweaking stuff, I got 5.5 MB for the
OSX necessary files only.
The point is a smaller .zip and a faster site will benefit *everyone*.
For extra benefit of 7z users, fine, we can add that option. But it
shouldn't be the only one and the focus of our initial efforts.
