You have to stick it all in the DLL anyway (since you can't know which parts 
will and won't be used), so the whole issue of not including used 
functionality goes away completely. There's no point in worrying about how 
much unused functionality gets included when you have no choice but to include 
everything regardless of whether it's actually used.
