I compiled a very simple, tiny OCaml program (which uses a few modules, among which Re2, if that's of any help for context) to a native binary, and the result executable was almost 15MB.
I also just tried compiling a simple Hello World, and the result binary was 347KB, which sounds like a lot for a line of code..
Why does this happen? Is there a more space-efficient way to compile OCaml, or are there some guidelines I should follow to minimize the size of the executable?
