That's pretty much. On my system, both lsh and lshd (dynamically linked to glibc,
and stripped) are about 350K.

First, figure out why your binaries are so much larger than mine. The
Makefile doesn't strip binaries automatically, although there's a
target install-strip that strips binaries at installation time.

If lshd is the only program on the system that uses gmp, you may be
able to save some space by linking statically with gmp, as most of the
routines in gmp are not used by lshd.

If it's still too large after the above advice, try to get a symbol
map out f the linker, look for files or functions that are linked in
although they're not really needed, like the tcp forwarding functions.
