I had 1.4 GB qcow2 VM image after installing 7.3 this week.
Then some pkg_add and cvs stuff for the ports i maintain, and
i ended up with almost 1.7 GB.
Then i dropped the relink stuff, and used tar to copy over the
entire system to another qcow2 image (realpath error can still be
seen for installboot):

  -rw-r-----  1 root vm 1681326080 Apr 29 21:41  .o-0703.qcow2
  -rw-r-----  1 root vm  882245632 Apr 29 21:50  o-0703.qcow2

The improvement is even greater than for 7.1, that image ~1.3 GB.

A nice weekend i wish!
