It seems to me that the executable file produced by gcc is guite large...?
I compiled the standard "Hello, world"-program, and the output executable 
took up 57k, 32k when compiled with the -s option.
 
I know that there's got to be this stub-loader, dpmi-interfacing etc. 
but does this really take up all this space, or did I just overlook 
some switch? What are the options if you want to reduce the size of
the output?

I hope this question hasn't been brought up too often :)
