 Looking at it in more detail:

 In beta3, `worker.js` and the `.map` files were removed.

 In beta4, `worker.js` came back.

 In beta5, `worker.js` is still there, and also both it and `worker.min.js`
 grew from 11 megabytes to 17 megabytes for some reason.

 It is also curious that `worker.js` seems to be the same size as
 `worker.min.js`.  Shouldn't the `.min.js` version be much smaller?
