I'm trying to reduce the size of an APK and I made the R8 minimization more aggressive by
- Using the
proguard-android-optimize.txt
file instead of the regular - Removing the contents of local
proguard-rules.pro
file to reduce exceptions
The build succeeded and I analyzed the APK using Android Studio's tool. I have attached a screenshot of the output. I don't understand why the old and new size only differ by 0.2 MB when the sum of the "Diff Size" column is around -2.2 MB.
Could somebody please help me understand the image?
