I've just noticed that the latest-from-jenkins image that I added VMMaker to this morning is 30Mb bigger than when it started. That seems a little excessive. There certainly isn't 30Mb worth of code involved.
SpaceTally says there is 29Mb of ByteStrings in the image, which seems rather a lot. In fact, I'll just attach the space report - it really is a bit alarming

I think you'll trace it back to Monticello state. Try flushing caches and see what happens.

See senders of #flushAllCaches. Mainly it's this one:
MCFileBasedRepository flushAllCaches. Smalltalk garbageCollect.

Yup, that cuts 28Mb out. Seems like an awful lot of stuff to cache in-image.
