I have a 500MB boot partition, and I keep only the linux and linux-lts kernels.

Recently I see that the partition only has about 23Mb free.

Is there some recent change which increased the kernel's size significantly?

Maybe it compiles to bigger binaries? I've never used Rust, so I have no idea if that's true.

I think there is probably truth to that, but I don't think its impacting the size of my initramfs in any significant way.
