Is it normal for debug builds to be huge? - LogicParrot - 03-28-2016

Our debug builds are huge. I know they should be bigger than production, but is a ~60MB executable normal?

60MB does sound huge. Since we have so many external libraries, I wonder if we are building them in debug mode also (I don't think we need to debug them?).

But then again, is 60MB really big enough to worry? Even on slow internet it's just a minute or 2 more to download.

Even if this is not a bandwidth concern, it's strange, and it may be affecting exe loading time or something. I think it's at least worth investigating.
