[llvm-dev] Can i reduce my clang/JIT app in size?

[Stefan Gränitz via llvm-dev]

36MB is quite small already. I guess you already built only one backend?
(-DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD=host) I don't think it will get much smaller.

Your requirements, however, sound like you could easily use a more
specialized compiler, like TinyCC? If your project is LGPL compatible, I
am sure you can make it codegen to a memory buffer. NativeJIT has good
data structures for that. The bigger task then is resolving relocations
and figuring out dependencies (especially on Windows). I guess you could
find all that in LLVM and use it without the entire engine behind.
