Re: object file size is reduced after build

Hi all,

We have large code on which we are solving the bugs. For every bug we
change the code part either add or delete some of the code part. More
is adding the code part and very less is deleting the code.

But the question is , after build the object file( changed code) size
is less than the object file ( unchanged code)???. As we increased
the lines of code the object file size should be increased but here it
is decresing .. why?

Is these issue with the optimization? as we are doing with
optimization 2.

Why don't you ask your development team instead of expecting a bunch of
random people to divine the characteristics of your build environment?
