OS X (macOS) installer sizes - Mountain Lion through Sierra

Sierra is almost ready for release now, so I’m preparing to install.

Interesting to compare installer sizes from the download era:

ReleaseSize (GB
Mountain Lion 4.46
Mavericks 5.33
Yosemite 5.68
El Capitan 6.21
Sierra 4.97

Sierra isn’t much bigger than Mountain Lion.

Curious.

Creeping up again! Michael Tsai said a lot of OS is now download on demand.
