I don't know what Donald was looking at, but I'm not seeing anything close to that 4k figure here. (Maybe he's on OS X, where framework builds have a "stub" executable that just execs the real one?) On my Ubuntu Trusty system, the system Python 3.4 executable is 3.9M, and the one I compiled myself from source, without any special options, is almost 12M. (Not really sure what accounts for that difference - Ubuntu system Python uses shared libraries for more stuff?) Carl
