This article is a work in progress about executable size and smartlinking on Lazarus. Fell free to contribute.

Introduction

Case study 1

This study was conducted on 8 february of 2006 and intends to stablish the relations between variables bellow with different Lazarus and Free Pascal versions as well as with Smartlinking and without.

The Variables being studied are:

  • Executable size after strip
  • Executable size after strip and UPX
  • Linking time

Compile time wasn´t included because it´s too similar on all configurations and also much smaller then the link time.
