I'd have thought it was obvious that the greater the revision number of Delphi, the greater the file size. D5 produces files that are as large as I'm prepared to go. Any further up and not only do they get slower, they get far, far bigger.

Not necessarily true. While H.W. in D3 is 5KB smaller, the smallest program I could generate in D3 was 36KB. The smallest in D5 was 16KB.

The smallest I can get in Delphi 2005 is 13.5 KB. Three is a trend, right? :)
