Default Boxed cake mixes - shrunk?

How much have they shrunk in the last 30 years? I haven't purchased many
mixes in that time, but I did have one recipe that required a cake mix. I
tried it tonight and could tell right away that there just wasn't enough mix
to make the bar crust. I did some doctoring and the result is so-so. I
think I recall someone on tv going on about needed 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 boxes to
replace the old boxes. Anyone know?
