Can someone tell me what the size of a simple "hello world" program's

they are from D7.

Why is a "hello world" program a meaningful benchmark?

It gives one an idea of 'compiled in' run time support
- probably the first test one does is a console mode 'Hullo World'
- then a MessageBox 'Hullo World'
- then a ShowMessage 'Hullo World'
- then a Form showing 'Hullo World'

Not a bad test of compiler (or rather linker) efficiency
