5 years ago Good catch. I wiill make it a point to strip the next binary release. I'll also probably release a compressed version of the binary as well to shoot for an even lower size. I wonder if it would be better to only release a compressed version. That way the execute mode can be encoded in the archive. Either way at least one extra step needs to be taken (decompress vs chmod) so there might not be any downsides.

I suggest stripping the binary during release:
|strip signet-0.9.11 |
This saves almost 4 mebibytes (from 23132204 to 19491360).
Of course, if you want to save more space you could always compress the binary, I tried using bz2 and it got down to 8Mb (8403274).
