Large filesize (1MB of raw WASM)

[nedtwigg]

Has any effort gone into filesize? Maybe there are some low hanging fruit?

• in @dimforge/rapier2d 0.12.0, the file rapier_wasm2d_bg.wasm is 1.05MB
  • https://www.npmjs.com/package/@dimforge/rapier2d/v/0.12.0?activeTab=code
• 0.11.2 is 1.05MB
• 0.11.0 is 1.04MB
• 0.10.0 is 1.04MB
• 0.9.0 is 1.02MB

So there's no sudden jump, seems like it's always been very large.

[nedtwigg]

Making this change

-wasm-opt = ['-O4', '--dce']
+wasm-opt = ['-g']

takes the filesize from 1.1MB to 1.4MB. I then ran twiggy top -n 100 pkg/rapier_wasm2d_bg.wasm and I get:

I'm not familiar with these tools, but it looks like there's no giant blob of some dependency getting smashed in. Seems like this is just how much it takes.

FWIW, matter.js seems to be ~120kB.

I'm not too familiar with codesize optimizations, but that's a valuable topic for sure!

I see a few serde items on the larger items, I'm curious how the filesize changes when the serialize feature is disabled 🤔.

Also, from guidelines at https://rustwasm.github.io/book/reference/code-size.html#use-trait-objects-instead-of-generic-type-parameters ; heavy generic-based codebase tends to generate a lot of code (due to monomorphization), and rapier heavily uses those.

It might be interesting to parse somehow the top dependencies rather than the top functions 🤔

I'm currently trying to implement Rapier on CloudFlare Workers, but they have a 1MB limit on code size and version 0.14 is at 1.4MB. Thankfully, with gzip, it comes in under 1MB, but it's limiting other features I want to add. It would be great if there was a way to customize the build to exclude specific functionality. For example, I do not need joints or vehicles in my project. How much would that shrink the payload?
I'm transitioning over from AmmoJS and they did have a custom build system that wasn't too difficult to use. I was able to take the Ammo wasm build down to 310k (with brotli compression it's 115k).
