Very sorry, I ment that the original modules.*map files are 300% larger than the diethotplug binary.
Hm, for the options I use in 2.5.31 I get these results: modules.pcimap 6273 bytes modules.usbmap 98513 bytes modules.ieee1394map 73 bytes ---------------------------------- total 104859 bytes
diethotplug binary 16332 bytes
Looks like the modules.*map files are closer to 650% larger :)
