The latest available (at http://ftp.squeak.org/trunk) image's size is 
18.1MB. My clean trunk image which is updated every day is 18.9MB large. 
It's still less than 20MB. Also note that there are several scripts that 
decrease the image size which are evaluated before a release image is 
created. Try running these for example (there are a lot more and we should 
clean up ReleaseBuilder too):

ReleaseBuilder >> #prepareReleaseImage
ScriptLoader >> #flushCaches
ReleaseBuilderFor3dot10 >> cleanUnwantedCs

After these my image's size is 13.6MB.
