We've now moved to world where the runtime images are created from a

the big jdk.localedata module so that the profiles images have all
locales.
Just curious, how will we track the size of modules? Probably we can
save this information during the build time, so regressions will be
found easily?
Once we are a bit further then I expect we will generate a directory of
modules, format TBD. This will be important to have when creating images
outside of the JDK build environment, say a custom image with your
application, some libraries and their transitive dependences. That might
be the time to track the size, although it would really be just an
indication, it may be very different when linked in to the eventual
image (due to compression and other transformations that might happen at
link time).
