It'd be helpful if you told us what development tool you're using.
Assuming that you use GCC, then:
Unlike most compilers, GCC's optimization options up to about -O2 tend
to shrink the program size. (On most other compilers, cranking up the
optimizations does things like loop unrolling and function inlining,
which makes the program bigger.)
If you gave more details, I'm sure we could come up with even more
useful advice...
