huge exe size

22 Jan 2004

      Hi all,

I'm new in GNU Pascal and wonder the exe size compiler
produces. Three lines Hello World source was blowed up
to the 349 KB (!) exe. Stripped down (with -s) the
executable is still big - 247 KB.
The same source compiled with VirtualPascal's compiler
is 11 KB exe. 20 times smaller!
Am I doing something wrong?

Thank in advance,
Peter
