Also, forgot to mention. Pre-rc1 binaries were 52mb. Not sure why with the same configuration Ken had got such bigger binary -- maybe it's because of collada (not sure i've used exactly the same configuration for it).
Really strange thing that even with binary 10mb bigger tham mine Ken's archive was 2-3mb smaller. Matbe it's bytes sequence issue. So, maybe enabling all that codecs aren't so big issue from binary side point of view? Sergey I. Sharybin wrote: > Hi, > > I've done some testing with configurations.
