-s strips the source code
-ss strips source and line/column numbers information
qjsc repl.js generates an object size of 105726 bytes
qjsc -s repl.js generates an object size of 20853 bytes
qjsc -ss repl.js generates an object size of only 16147 bytes
compile repl.js with -ss
bump byte code version to 12
