Finding out why an executable is large is as easy as compiling with
-L/map on Windows and -L-map -Lfoo.map on Linux/OSX, and then
examining the resulting map file which will tell you each and every
symbol in the executable and how large it is.
Yes, but making sense out of the raw data is another thing.
What's hard about "function foo is in the executable, and consumes 421
bytes"?
All a linker does is concatenate the bytes of your generated code
together from the various obj files and write it out. There's no magic
going on.
