[Lazarus] (no subject)

[Sandro Cumerlato]

I'd like to recommend you to STRIP and UPX executables under Windows.

Initial executables size:
lazarus.exe  170859359 bytes (*)
lazbuild.exe  52797635 bytes
startlazarus.exe  15897492 bytes

after STRIP and UPX:
lazarus.exe  4093952 bytes (*)
lazbuild.exe  1653760 bytes
startlazarus.exe  1653760 bytes

executables size is reduced to:
lazarus.exe  2% of the original size
lazbuild.exe  3% of the original size
startlazarus.exe  10% of the original size

...and Lazarus (*) starts as a real cheetah! :)

Just my 2 cents.
