Re: [R-pkg-devel] Solaris package installed size

Well, binaries may well have different sizes on different platforms, 
aslo when statically linkd vs dynamically linked etc.

In this case, you should not worry.

Best,

I've looked at R solaris documentation 
(https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-admin.html#Solaris), but it 
says nothing other than suggesting that it will require more stack space 
(memory) to build the package... but this doesn't say anything about disk space 
or installation directory cleanup differences.

"At least when compiling with Oracle compilers, Solaris uses far more stack space 
than other platforms."  Perhaps there are additional files that are generated for 
Solaris that are not generated for other platforms?
