[LLVMdev] Executable size comparison for different targets.
Here is a size comparison of compiling bzip2 for different targets using the
ELLCC clang/LLVM based cross development tool chain (http://ellcc.org):

Soft float adds about 7K to the size of the executable compared to its
hard float counterpart, which sounds about right. These executables are
all statically linked with musl and compiler-rt. A dynamically linked
executable
for x86_64 looks like this:
