About 20% is usually taken by the symbol table, only necessary for 
debugging. Try stripping it out for deployment...

Phil: when comparing the stripped sizes of libqt.so.3.2.1 and the 
relevant libqt*cmodule.so's, the latter are combined about 34% 
bigger. The huge size of sip wrapped libs results from the necessity 
of generating implementations of all possible method signatures. 
Don't know, if there is at least a possibility to do something about 
this on c++ level?

OTOH, using sip4 not only obsoletes the .py* modules, it reduces the 
lib size by a few %. Nice :-)

Good luck.
