I also downloaded KOL and MCK GUI kit and I created an empty
application with the size of 200 KBs (70 KB without icon). However KOL
have a very-very minimalistic approach. They even do not use Object
Pascal classes and this is not object oriented library, because to
manage all the objects you have to invoke separated functions and
procedures. It makes "learning curve" higher for any new developers of
my team, therefore I wouldn't consider KOL.<br>
<br>
Anyway thank you for your advice I will try fpGUI.<br>

Depends on the toolkit used with Lazarus...
Under Linux I just tried with the pre-alpha fpGUI Toolkit. A simple
application with only a Main Form and no other components. One used
LCL-fpGUI and the other used fpGUI directly (no LCL). It's amazing
how much extra LCL adds.
LCL-fpGUI = 2,530,336 bytes
fpGUI directly = 392,960 bytes
