OK, I will buy that as an answer to first part of the question. Any pointers on making compiled code smallest possible besides using efficient coding techniques such as avoid modulo, division, multiplication and other emulated operations? How would you go about it?
For for the rest of us, through this tests, the following are my conclusions:
- Optimization level 4 can be so over zealous that it can have an adverse effect.
- Optimization Level 2 and 3 Produced the best result to reduce the code size in this case but while optimizing, I would test different optimization levels and monitor program size.
