Hello,

I should start with saying that I'm absolutely amazed by Neko/Haxe -
it's marvelous that in the world trapped in JavaScript mediocrity some
people where brave enough to build complete ecosystem which is both
real-world and based on solid foundations of Lisp and *ML heritage.

Well, people can never get enough, and my question is in that vein. One
of the first things I read about NekoVM was FAQ which is at
http://nekovm.org/faq?s=68#how_is_neko_different_from_llvm_or_c claims
that libneko.so is 68KB. That's not what I see with the latest version:

$ ls -l /usr/lib/libneko.so.0.2 
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 120992 Apr 27  2012 /usr/lib/libneko.so.0.2

Building it myself (all happens on x86), I got the similar results.

So, on what the information quoted above is based, and is it possible
to cut down the size after all?

It's not idle question - I would never consider giving up Python, if
didn't get a project to put a webapp on an Embedded Linux system with
4Mb flash, with 300Kb space normally free, most of which really should
be occupied by user's data, so any extra 10K is important asset.


Thanks,
 Paul                          mailto:[email protected]
