Size increase for streamable font pre-processing

For fonts processed by the Streamable Fonts tool
https://github.com/litherum/StreamableFonts

is there data on how much larger they get as a result of 
desubroutinisation and other processing?

Ideally a range with percentiles, rather than just an average.

It isn't clear to me (sorry) if, in the simulation, the fonts were first 
processed this way and then served by the two approaches (so they 
started from the same baseline) or whether this was only applied to the 
fonts served with Glyph Byterange, and the ones served with Patch and 
Subset were the original fonts (thus, a bt smaller to begin with).

Also, I recall reading that the fonts served had hinting removed, is 
that true? I can't find where I read it now, sorry.
