Comment (by desrosj):

 There have been a few changes in the last 24 hours that would have
 affected the package size:
 - [62069] removed a bunch of stray directories and files that were no
 longer supposed to be included (see ticket:64393#comment:177)
 - The most recent pinned hash bump pulled in upstream improvements from
 the `gutenberg` repository.

 I've gone and performed a new comparison of the built files. Below is a
 chart comparing file sizes between the
 [https://build.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/61351 latest commit on the
 build server] as of writing this comment with the result of running
 `build` in the `6.9` branch of `wordpress-develop` today. The threshold to
 appear in the list is a difference of at least 100KB.

 In total, this accounts for a net +23.9MB increase in package size.

 The nightly was rebuilt after [62069] and is clocking in at 60MB.

 60MB (latest nightly) - 24.8 (6.9.4 size) = 35.2MB increase. The table
 above is only accounting for ~24MB, so roughly 11MB is still unaccounted
 for.
