Done; obviously it is better - but fair from ideal.
Total size is now about ~410MB (so 20% improvement)
Top 10 reports by size (sort ASC):

While these changes are impressive, a 20MB HTML file is still a pain to
load and process.
NB: These results are not synced to the website. I have cherry-picked
by work around (also pushed to master), so it will be synced with the
next website build.
Thanks,
~Niels
