tester2007 Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Recently I downloaded and compiled PHP 5.2.4 and was surprised to see all executables (cli & cgi) very big; in the range of 11M. This on Fedora 7/8. I compared it with Fedora PHP of the same version and noticed that their executable was about 3.3MB. I printed all configured options from Fedora version (using php -i) and used it to configure mine. This did not give me the size savings I expected. In fact, it my executable is still in the range of 10M even if I disable most of database packages etc. Does anyone has any suggestions ???

10drill Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 If you didn't run make install, did you "strip" the binary? I just compiled 5.2.5 and before stripping it was something like 18M. After running strip php-cgi from the command line it was 5.7M (with lots of extensions and extra stuff). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
