Just to summarize, some of the things you can try to cut down PRC bloat:
a) turn off MacsBug symbols for release builds (set in the 68K Processor
panel).
b) use opts level 4, optimize for code size (set in the Global Optimization
panel).
c) Turn off A6 stack frames (68K Processor)
d) I also turn off symbolics (68K Linker) and browser info (Build Extras) as
standard procedure
e) inlining, especially for frequently used small functions also bloats code
f) there are probably some compiler pragmas as well that may help. Check out
the docs for more listings on the pragmas.
