Research direction

Start by tracing how compressed and uncompressed sizes are displayed in Treemap, Sunburst, and Flamegraph, then check how global settings are organized. Decide whether the toggle belongs in Settings or each visualization, and consider the work done when the selected mode consistently controls the displayed sizes across all named views.

Description

enhancement
Clear and concise description of the problem

I'm aware that DevTools show compressed size sometimes, but while inspecting the bundle that size is ALL I'm interested in!

I don't want to see the size that's on the disk. That may be useful for performance purposes, I don't know, but I'm not there yet. For now I'd like to see what's taking most of my transferred file size.

Suggested solution

Either:

  • as a global setting in Settings, as a checkbox, which would turn off all before and after compression displays of size and only show after
  • or as a checkbox in Treemap, Sunburst and Flamegraph, to toggle back and forth between compressed and uncompressed
