Dear all I'd wonder why executable's debug information size is bigger than gcc dwarf debug info. When I compiled ARM hello world code with -g option, the arm based assembly and executable files are bigger than gcc results significiantly.(apx. 3x) (source file size was only 3KB) I think that both clang and gcc use same dwarf format ver2 for debugging. But I don't know why the clang

...u're on linux, I suggest running "readelf -w file.o" to examine what is actually in the debug info in your files. Figuring out how to shrink our debug info size is something we're actively working on. A couple bugs I'm looking at right now are llvm.org/PR11323 and llvm.org/PR11345 . Nick
