Is it because the installer exe is huge?

That's because the footprint libraries are now part of the installers
and they are absolutely massive. (4GB uncompressed)

The whole repo (including git history) only has ~90MB
If any libs are to blame then it will be the 3d models. (6.5 GB including git history)

the installed files look fine to me though? The kiface files would be
hundreds of megs themselves if they had debug symbols but they are at
"normal" levels.

Hi Devs-

I'm seeing some reports (lp:1783037) that indicate the Windows build may be compiled CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo instead of Release.

Can anyone confirm this?  Is there a reason to do this for Windows?
