Size of QtWebEngine
-
I am a bit gob-smacked at the size of QtWebEngine.
I was wondering why my .app was huge and drilled down in the folder structure.
The directory DeepSkyStacker.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtWebEngineCore.framework takes up over 500MB! QtWebEngineCore alone is 460MB
Why so humongous?

Qt Creator team noticed that too, and that's why we are using https://code.qt.io/cgit/playground/qlitehtml.git/about/
It works fine for Qt Creator's documentation display needs.

Because it uses Chromium, and Chromium is humongous

Unfortunately litehtml won't work for me - I need function it doesn't provide :(
That's pretty much the tradeoff. Chromium has All The Things you might need, but that means it has the disk usage of All The Things.
