I would suggest in this order

Keil
IAR
Raisonance
Rigel
SDCC

Keil and IAR are very much more advanced than the rest. Keil
particularly can do aggressive data overlaying which is often more
crucial than the limit on memory addressing the eval version.

Anyone got any figures comparing any of these with gcc? Maybe for a
bit of open source software? (e.g. Lewin's DOSFS - or a another similar
sized project). How big is it when compiled with gcc, and with any of the
above compilers. I'm more interested in code size rather than run-time
performance.

Paul Taylor.
