Oddly, on most Android devices you actually have plenty of RAM to work with,
especially in native code where the Java maximum heap size do not apply.
Memory's not a bottleneck.

I wasn't saying that libraries <100k are bloated. So far, I had the impression
that we were in the order hundreds of kilobytes, which is too much for plugin
support in an app, when you think about it as a whole, which means codecs and
other deps.

All these changes sound very good to me.
