Dear Maintainer,
When comparing the debug symbol files for Firefox, which are rather massive,

Attached here is two files that can be compared directly, exposing the
same problem. That's essentially the output of tar --full-time -tvf on
both tarballs from the original bug report.

Dear Maintainer,
Looking at the HTML in the HTML output, one can see that it is needlessly large.
Specifically, there appears to be a lot of e.g.

When comparing ELF files, the following commands are used:
- readelf --all
- readelf --debug-dump
- objdump --disassemble --full-contents
objdump --disassemble --full-contents is actually redundant in itself. For
example, it will dump both an

Dear Maintainer,
