Research direction

The issue asks for suggestions to reduce pell.js size. First, review the current pell.js source code (likely in /src) and measure its minified and gzipped size. Look for opportunities such as removing unused code, shortening variable names, or using more compact coding patterns. Consider using tools like terser or uglify js with advanced optimizations. Check the three comments on the issue for any tips from previous contributors. Also examine the build process in package.json to see how minification is currently done.
