Intel C++ Compiler Classic for Apple macOS

[freennix]

Hi, all,

I noticed that the offline-installer distribution of Intel C++ Compiler Classic for Apple macOS shrank from 156936664 bytes in size for the 2021.3 release down to 107922556 bytes for the 2021.4 release, a whopping >31% decrease in the size of the distribution; what was dropped or cut in the release going from 2021.3 to 2021.4?

’preciate it,

Austin

If we made any changes, we would list them on our Release Notes. Could be that we had a better way to compress the image.

I checked the list of components. They both contain the same components.
