In reply to Bert Hoop.

Hi Bert, version 4.0.0 is 27.1 kB minified and gzipped; but that's only half the story (as in, transfer size): https://bundlephobia.com/package/jquery@4.0.0-beta.

Here's a table listing the minified sizes of all versions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JQuery#Release_history.

I updated the article--thanks for commenting!
