240 bytes is a normal size for a 'user.tar.gz' file.
I think you should extract and compare the contents of both 'user.tar.gz' files. The 8,800-byte file probably has more things inside. You could use 'ls -aR' to list the contents recursively.

Note to extension builders:

I am in the process of creating an Sqlite databse for all the extensions. This will allow quite extensive search capabilities.

In doing this project I have noticed and thusly has to cleanup many extension .info files.

Please adhere to the standard template.
Do not drop field names.
Please do not add additional field names. Instead embed in the comments section.

Many extensions were missing or had unlabeled comments section. Many were noeol files. Please make sure your .info files are plain ASCII text with end-of-line.

Having a good searchable SQL database of all extension will help in moving forward. This will be especially true if the new version of DSL is indeed a tiny core.

Thanks,

Robert
