Very sorry, I ment that the original modules.*map files are 300% larger
than the diethotplug binary.
Hm, for the options I use in 2.5.31 I get these results:
modules.pcimap 6273 bytes
modules.usbmap 98513 bytes
modules.ieee1394map 73 bytes
----------------------------------
total 104859 bytes
diethotplug binary 16332 bytes
Looks like the modules.*map files are closer to 650% larger :)
thanks,
