I've attempted to download the Windows binary as found at:
https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/kibana/kibana-6.7.0-windows-x86_64.zip
This leads to a 187MB zipped file. I attempted to unzip it and after 10 mins of it still running I gave up and moved onto a more "minimal" install version:
https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/kibana/kibana-oss-6.7.0-windows-x86_64.zip
This is now a 77MB file and has taken around 5 minutes to unzip and during that process I noticed it's re-created virutally every module in the npm registry in node_modules.
So long story short:
- Is there any way the Kibana team can reduce the size of the bundle and improve the experience in getting up and running with Kibana quicker?
- Is it really necessary to include everything under node_modules in a release?
