By my calculations, the sum of the sizes of the individual isopackets was 152MB, and the size of the combined isopacket is now just 36MB. That remarkable difference goes to show how much duplication of transitive dependencies was happening before this change. That's a savings of 116MB for the (uncompressed) size of the meteor-tool package. In Meteor 1.5.x, the meteor-tool package is about 544MB, but in Meteor 1.6 it's considerably smaller: 373MB. In other words, this change should reduce those sizes to 428MB (-21%) and 257MB (-31%), respectively.
