In our community, Pavel is the person that has the bigger experience on shrinking process images. I followed his work for years and I know the fragility of the process. Basically each new addition/removal was breaking it and needing dependency tracking, etc. Now is the opposite: you just add what you want, and you are sure the resulting image is a) healthy and b) identical when running.

Indeed it is fragile. And given the latest image size, not sure it could lead to satisfactory results.

I understood that to mean that getting a minimal image via automated stripping was more fragile than bootstrapping,

and with bootstrapping we are now on a better path.�� And Pharo is transitioning a few tools.��

Nautilus-->Calypso and Morphic-->Bloc.�� Obviously old and new overlap for a time.�� So it should get better.
