Why dwarf information has so big debug files (comparing with stabs) on windows?

Because Windows (just like Darwin) does not support referring to DWARF debug info from one object file to another, so a lot of debug information is duplicated in multiple units.

We also encode more information when using DWARF than when using Stabs (e.g. properties, absolute variables, public/private/protected information, calling convention, virtuality of methods).
