The important thing is to use the -g0 flag. Even though RcppEigen is a header-only package we include an example R function fastlm. If you leave the symbols in the DLL file you get a massive library size whereas stripping the symbols provides you with a much smaller file size. And because packages that use RcppEigen only use the headers, not the DLL file, it doesn't matter if the symbols are stripped.
