Well, the app I used as an example isn't very small. It wasn't a
'Hello World' app. Yes it is bigger than Delphi created, but then I
worked on Delphi apps that had 35Mb executables, and no that wasn't
due to image resources. Just a very large app. With today's hard
drive space - who cares! :-)
For internet downloading/distribution, use 7zip for compression. It
shrinks files like nothing before!

I know.
You consider that 4MB is small?

It is verified that the size yes imports. :)
