Difference in size with different branches

[Guitarm]

Hello,

I have a question regarding size of different source (and binary) downloads of DC++.

If I download the binary version of 0.694, the sizes are as follows:
DCPlusPlus.exe = 1 536 000 byte
DCPlusPlus.pdb = 11 481 088 byte

If I download the source version of 0.694 (and compile it), the sizes are:
DCPlusPlus.exe = 1 613 824 byte
DCPlusPlus.pdb = 19 230 720 byte

If I use SVN and check out a clean copy of 0.694 and compile, the sizes are:
DCPlusPlus.exe = 1 613 824 byte
DCPlusPlus.pdb = 19 222 528 byte

So, my question is - Why do they differ?. Is there some optimizing I don't know about, or is it caused by different WTL and STLPort versions?

I should mention that I use VS 2003 with SP1, WTL 7.5 (build 5333) and STLPort 5.0.2 to compile. The sources are also completely unmodified.

I think it's due to STLPort version. As I know arne still uses 4.6.2

PDB size also depends on build type. If you do an incremental build, it is larger, and doesn't seem to be useful for loading debug symbols.
