Did you actually change the CC/LINK flags? I don't think that is commonly needed for achieving good sizes. I think the RELEASE flags in the standard tools_def should work pretty well ... except one thing ... :) ... DebugLib can add a lot of size. Something like this in your .dsc might help for release builds. [BuildOptions] GCC:RELEASE_*_*_CC_FLAGS = -DMDEPKG_NDEBUG INTEL:RELEASE_*_*_CC_FLAGS = /D MDEPKG_NDEBUG MSFT:RELEASE_*_*_CC_FLAGS = /D MDEPKG_NDEBUG Although, I thought MSVC usually did pretty good at removing dead code at link time. So, you might check your gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdDebugPrintErrorLevel and gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdDebugPropertyMask settings in your .dsc. Also, you might also look at the LibraryClasses settings in your .dsc. -Jordan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How ServiceNow helps IT people transform IT departments: 1.
