Comment(by erinn):

 The thing that made it bigger is Firefox's XUL (libxul.so in Linux). It is
 10 megabytes bigger than the old one. :/ We only build for one arch, I
 think the universal packages are twice the size of ours.

 I'm not sure there's any way to make it smaller, but I can look into more
 restrictive build options and disabling more things, but I do have debug
 disabled, among other things
 (https://gitweb.torproject.org/torbrowser.git/blob/maint-2.2:/build-
 scripts/config/mozconfig-osx-i386) Otherwise I think splitting the package
 is our only option.
