While there was little difference between the no optimazation and the O2 version, the O1 version produced programs that were significantly smaller:
That's interesting and explained by the fact that "no optimization" produces a lot of superfluous code and "optimization" optimizes for speed, not for size. So it's no wonder that programs get bigger with higher optimization.
