@jonathanpeppers is this something new?

@MaksimAdamenko does this happen with a new maui template app?

@MaksimAdamenko can you share the version numbers before & after you are comparing here?

dotnet workload update --print-rollback would show the versions of all your workloads.

I compared an .apk here: https://github.com/jonathanpeppers/maui-profiling/pull/24

But I only have an .apk from MAUI .NET 7 GA saved in here. What versions should I be comparing?

I only saw this much change, which is expected if they bumped AndroidX packages:

+      91,886 assemblies/assemblies.blob

(This is in bytes)
