Worst Case Scenario

(thumbs down) Worst case bundle size: 1,167,317 bytes

...

The above bundle size number won’t make sense with the sizes in the above table. While running this test, I realized that because my MFE didn’t use our other shared dependencies, they weren’t included in the bundle. Rather than start over, I went back to the Shared Dependencies page, counted up the total size of all the dependencies that we would have to load if our host didn’t have a compatible copy of them, and added that to the base size of our best case scenario. That number was 1,081,960, and includes @openedx/paragon, classnames, prop-types, react-redux, react-router, react-router-dom, and redux. React, react-dom, and @edx/frontend-platform don't count because they are singletons and can’t be loaded more than once.
