Why a generated file is so huge?
"Empty" program such as:
int main(char[][] args)
{
return 0;
}
compiled with dmd2 into file with size of 266268 bytes.
Even after UPX, it's size is 87552 bytes.
Size of this code,compiled with VS(yes,yes, C++), is 6 656 bytes.
Compiler add's standard library to file, am i right?
Is there some optimization which delete unused code from file?
