I can't be bothered to build them but looking at the releases on GitHub openssl 3.4.0 is 17.5mb and rustls is 2.6mb. both of these releases are source files not binaries but I don't see how rustls could possibly be larger than openssl.

Comparing source code sizes is completely meaningless. Rust projects are usually smaller with far more granular dependencies.
