When I compile programs on my own, I usually run 'strip' on the binaries when I'm finished. This greatly reduces the size of the files but I wonder, does it affect performance/stability? My /usr/local/lib/gimp/0.99/plug-ins was 16mb now it's 3. The man-page says that strip removes symbols from the file, can anyone explain that in a little more detail?
