This release results in smaller and faster hydration code. To see the impact, SvelteKit users can see their compiled output shrink in size by examining the `.svelte-kit/output/client/_app/immutable/nodes` folder. For example, on [kit.svelte.dev](https://kit.svelte.dev) the page JS was reduced in size by 12.7% (126.3 kB to 110.3 kB).

Svelte 4 reduces the Svelte package size by nearly 75% (10.6 MB down to 2.8 MB), which means less waiting on `npm install`. This improvement will be especially noticeable for users who are loading our interactive learning experience on [learn.svelte.dev](https://learn.svelte.dev) for the first time, users of the Svelte REPL, and users with limited connectivity. The majority of the remaining package size is eslint support, which necessitates distributing a CJS build, and once [the eslint rewrite](https://github.com/eslint/eslint/discussions/16557) is completed the Svelte package size can drop by over another 50%.
