This change will reduce the size node_modules uses up (10 or more times).

pnpm saves one version of a package only ever once on a disk and node_modules consume drastically less space

here's an article about how much less disk space is used by pnpm. This concept will probably come with the same disk space savings http://www.andrewconnell.com/blog/npm-yarn-pnpm-which-packag...

but this concept is fresh, pnpm already works;)
