All files, even symlinks, take some space. On UBIFS single file
overhead is about 1/4 KB (inodes + filename).

As UBIFS compresses the file contents[1] with LZO, it's the lzop
compressed file sizes which should be used for this kind of decision.
Does maemo-optify compare the lzop'ed or non-compressed ones file sizes?
- Eero
[1] /opt is on ext3 which isn't compressed.
