How is it possible that the image size is so much smaller with the WASM image compared to the Docker image? They need to ship the entire php runtime compiled to WASM, so I don’t see how it can be smaller

What do you think is in the docker image?
They showed the WASM image is 5mb vs 30mb for the alpine Docker image. So that’s 25mb of overhead due to the alpine distro?
That could be the main factor.
