The size of symbola.svg is huge

I analyzed my one of my projects, using webpack-bundle-analyzer, and found out that symbola.svg takes up a very large part of my apps overall size.

Is it possible to compress the file or optimize it in other ways?

The size of the other fonts are around 7KB, but the svg version is 2,2MB, its over 300x as much.

Also noticing this now, has anyone figured out a fix?

There are woff and woff2 files in the fonts directory as well as -basic variants which contain fewer glyphs. I'm not sure how the -basic variants are used though.
