MySQL 5.6.25 "noinstall Zip" - Release runtimes only?

Dear community,

we are using MySQL (community server edition) in our application as database server. To install it, we use the "noinstall zip" for Windows.

However, these zips (32 and 64bit ones I speak about) do not only contain the plain runtimes, but also everything, which is required for running MySQL in Debug mode, too.

Our plan is, to strip down the zips, so only the plain release runtimes are there, reducing the size drastically.

What we did so far:
1. We removed all *.pdb files
2. We removed the folders
2.1 lib/debug
2.2 mysql-test
2.3 scripts
2.4 sql-bench
3. We removed mysql-debug.exe

Questions
1. What else can / should be removed?
2. OR could we use the %ProgramFiles%/MySQL Server 5.6 folder from an msi installation?

We have seen, that it is planned to deliver the debug files apart from the plain runtimes with 5.7, so in the future this will become much easier.
