I was comparing sizes of a simple test c++ program compiled under cygwin
with the mno-cygwin option and using visual c++. The visual c++
compiled version was 10 times smaller. The cygwin file was 300000
bytes. the visual c++ one was 30000. what is going on?

I would suspect that the smaller one was linked dynamically, the larger,
statically.
