I did this a while ago. the .iso.xz came in at 22.1 MB and the .iso at ~80MB. That's for a ro image with tmpmfs and varmfs[0], a minimal kernel, base and the packages nginx-lite, jansson, re2, curl, acme.sh and some services. The system boots from an ISO into running nginx and hosting a basic network scanner[1] at a VPS provider. I basically built from source with a custom SRCCONF[2], KERNCONF[3] and some other cleanup[4]. There may be easier ways to do it but it worked out pretty well for me.
