At close to 5 MB this is very high for a production build, and I notice the vendor.js file served when in production mode is not compressed or uglified.

I have set the environment variable in the console to Production instead of Development and rerun the webpack with the vendor config. Actually with either Dev or Prod, the resultant vendor.js file that is generated is the same size.

Is there a step I am missing to generate a smaller tree shaken, minified and uglified vendor.js file?
