- you cannot build in static mode in linux. We perhaps should that option remove completely... (the cause is that some linux libraries are simply missing in static form).

- mingw - unfortunately, it is correct. GCC is not very good in keeping executable size low.

That said, very small GUI apps are really a bit long (1MB with MSC compiler) (no surprise, they contain a lot of stuff statically linked in). That is the price we pay for being "self-contained". IME, it is better to sacrifice 1MB than to introduce DLL-hell.

Moreover, to good part is that the code size grows slowly afterwards. Just consider amount of functions TheIDE contains in 4MB .exe...
