Deployments appear to be failing due to artifact file size

Encountered this when trying to use pak as a backend for renv, which seems to embed the r-lib github pages page as a source for installation.

options(renv.config.pak.enabled = TRUE)
renv::install()
#> renv was unable to query available packages from the following repositories:
#> - # https://r-lib.github.io/p/pak/stable/source/linux-gnu/x86_64/src/contrib --------
#> error downloading 'https://r-lib.github.io/p/pak/stable/source/linux-gnu/x86_64/src/contrib/PACKAGES.rds' [error code 60]
#> error downloading 'https://r-lib.github.io/p/pak/stable/source/linux-gnu/x86_64/src/contrib/PACKAGES.gz' [error code 60]
#> error downloading 'https://r-lib.github.io/p/pak/stable/source/linux-gnu/x86_64/src/contrib/PACKAGES' [error code 60]
#> Error: package 'pak' is not available

And sure enough, https://r-lib.github.io/ currently returns a 404

It appears that recent site deployments have crossed the 1GB threshold of github pages deployments (recent action logs), showing
