What about pacman's "Total Package Size" message

Just out of curiosity: Why does pacman print out the following two lines some times? I couldn't really figure out a pattern when pacman does it and most of the time it doesn't. No problems or anything, but I was just wondering what's up with that. :>

Whops, forgot to mention the two lines I'm talking about:
I mean the

Total Package Size: xxMB
Total Installed Size: yyMB

And actually I believe the Total Package Size has always been printed but the Total Installed Size is only getting printed on some packages.
What does it depend on whether that line is shown or not?

Are you talking about when you run pacman -Qi on a package?  I think Total Installed Size was recently added, and will only be displayed for packages you've installed after you upgraded to pacman 3.

No, that seems to exist in every package, I meant the output from pacman -S foobar
But I'd guess something like it's a new feature that not every package contains too. Again, nothing critical or whatever, I'm just interested. :>
