hi Bulat, thanks for the speedy reply! I tried the following two ways and got the same result:
(1) in the shell, strip hello (2) ghc -optl-s -o hello -L../lib hello.hs They both result in a binary size of ~2.5MBytes, which is about 5 times what I expected (500kbytes). Have I had the 'incorrect impression' of 500kbytes ?
