This is on linux fc6 (x86_64).

A default build of CVS head built with stock gcc 3.4.6 on x86_64 only produces 412Mb in the bin/boost/libs/wave directory -- and this effectively includes 16 copies of everything: individual object files or libraries; archives or shared libraries; debug or release builds; multi-threaded or not. The release shared objects are only 1.2 Mb which hardly seems excessive. -- Richard Smith
