[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-3977) generated/duplicated javadocs are wasteful and bloat the release

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3977?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13252539#comment-13252539 ] 

Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-3977:
-------------------------------------

We can save 10MB with this patch, which nukes the 'index'.
I guarantee you nobody will miss it. Just click this thing and see how 
useless it is (since its every method etc in all of lucene).

> Some stats for the generated javadocs of 3.6:
> * 9,146 files
> * 161,872 KB uncompressed
> * 25MB compressed (this is responsible for nearly half of our binary release)
> The fact we intentionally double our javadocs size with the 'javadocs-all' thing
> is truly wasteful and compression doesn't help at all. Just testing, i nuked 'all'
> and found:
> * 4,944 files
> * 81,084 KB uncompressed
> * 12.8MB compressed
> We need to clean this up for 4.0. We only need to ship javadocs 'one way'.
