"Using GNAT under OS/2, the hello program compiles to
a 262,958 byte executable. When I strip the debug code,
the size goes down to 53,252 bytes. When I run the
LxLite utility program to compress the EXE file, the size
goes down to 31,364 bytes. This file size is certainly not
out of line with C/C++ compilers.
"
And if you link dynamically instead of staticaly, you can of course
reduce the executable size much further.
