File sizes

I am going through our this page and verifying all of the citations.

I have a question about file sizes Here are the sizes I personally verified:

ISO size of Core x86 Version 12.0: 15.3 MB (16,054,272 bytes)
ISO size of TinyCore x86 Version 12.0: 20.0 MB (20,971,520 bytes)
ISO size of CorePlus x86 Version 12.0: 155 MB (162,529,280 bytes)
IMG Size of piCore Version 13.0.3 (after unzipping): 84.0 MB (88,080,384 bytes)

Right now I just put these results in edit comments -- I am hoping to find a reliable secondary source to confirm my WP:OR.

My question is about dCore. For dCore x86 I have bionic, jessie, stretch, trusty, wheezy, and xenial.[1] For dCore 64 I have bionic64, buster64, focal64, and stretch64.[2] Which should I use for measuring the size of dCore?
