react-dom blowing out webpack bundle size MASSIVELY
http://elijahmanor.com/react-file-size/
In v15.4.0 the file size of react-dom grew from 1.17kB to 619.05kB. Which means my webpack setup isn't doing anything wrong bundling files. The reason why this module grew so large is because code was transferred from the react module.
If you look into the corresponding folders under the node_modules
folder, and note the file sizes, you'll see that there's nothing to be surprised about:
That is, the size of the bundle grows noticeably because the size of react-dom.js is large.
