Hello everyone,

I never noticed this before, never bothered to :-).  But today it hit me 
that the following program produces a rather huge exe size.

With Ada.Text_IO;
procedure Hello is
begin
    Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line ("Hello World. Welcome to GNAT");
end;

a whopping 217Kb (without debug information)...am I doing something wrong, 
or is this the actual size of a basic exe file produced by Ada?

Compiled with GNAT 3.15p
