I run some tests against two different Racket binaries, each one being v5.3.4. The stripped binary was compiled from a PPA package [1] using `apt-get source --compile'. The unstripped binary was compiled from the official source code distributed at <http://racket-lang.org/>. To test the startup time, I used a very simple expression (`42'), run it 10 times and calculated the mean. Here are the results: STRIPPED size: 4408K startup time (`$ racket -e 42'): 500ms UNSTRIPPED size: 10254K startup time (`$ racket -e 42'): 298ms [1] https://launchpad.net/~plt/+archive/racket -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
