Since there are six memory models (tiny,small,compact,medium,large,huge) and four cpu targets (8086,186,286,386), that means 24 copies of generics.collections.ppu, which are 31 MB each. So that totals about 748 MB for those files alone. (The related generics.collections.a libraries only total 534 kb.)

NOT complaining! Just noticing.
