I'm not sure what you mean by compressed. |

Part of the difference you are seeing, I think, is that when we install |
| 18 |
packages, everything is installed -- the documentation, header files, |
| 19 |
libraries and executibles. I don't know whether releng deletes parts of |
| 20 |
packages they don't need (such as header files or the material in |
| 21 |
/usr/share/doc), but if they do that would bring the size down. |
