here's the first few lines of output from the 
without-miscellaneousoptions_xml.log which is where the above come from...

same as above... "debug ide" because that's the one with the large size 
differences which i cannot understand...

the only differences i see are "-dDEBUG -dVERBOSE"... these are selected in the 
miscellaneousoptions_xml but i still don't see how these can influence... 
especially since the one WITH "-dDEBUG -dVERBOSE" is the /smaller/ one...

TBH, i actually expect that the "debug ide" would have at least "-dDEBUG" as 
default since it is a debug version and it would seem that one would want all 
the debug capability they can get... "-dVERBOSE" seems to indicates more 
messages which are also important in debugging so i would expect it, too, to be 
included... maybe i'm missing something??
