Ok when I use gcc (all th time) the program it makes in c++ with debug on is around a megabyte when off it is around half a megabyte when working with c with debug on it around 50 k with it off it's at about25 k this doesn't seem to depend on how much is in the program (none of mine are large) so what compiler makes he smallest programs?

Jump to PostHave you tried using the -Os flag for GCC?
Jump to PostAll the -O flags are related to optimizations. There are -O0 through -O3 going up in speed optimizations. There is also -Os which tries to minimize the size of the output file.
