The tag build and nightly build could be the same revision depending on
if there were any more commits between the tag and the build time.
That's why they both report r18664.

As for the size difference -- the tag build rebuilds all the
dependencies from source, whereas the nightly build never rebuilds
dependencies.  So the nightly build could be using way-old libraries. 

Hope this explains the differences.
