Hi Stephen,

If you checked in a gem into git
Then you deleted the gem from git.
Git still has the gem.
It is not showing up for today, but git log will show when you added it and 
removed it.

Guess I do not know if you are checking in your bundle dir and gems into git.


1. So are you saying your repo is 17mb, or your slug is 17mb?

I'd imagine that the slug would be smaller on your change to the Gemfile.
But you stating that your slug is big suggests that maybe the .git directory is 
included in the slug?


The slug size does affect the speed in which a dyno is started / compiles / 
restarts.
But I agree with Chris, I can't imagine it would slow it down too much.
