I just noticed this a little while ago (see my
thread last weekish something).
Anyway try to strip your binaries;
bash;
cd /usr/local/xorp/;
for xfile in `find . -perm 755`; do strip $xfile; done
The usual disclaimer goes for the above.. ;)

You should end up with 10% of the original file
size. To get even lower you have to do more magic
- read the other thread :)
