Hi,
Having examined the intermediates folder files more closely and have
found that there is a difference in the size of three files: main.o,
master.o and TrustedPrecomps.txt.
The only file I can easily examine is the txt file. The
TrustedPrecomps.txt from the small build contains:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Cocoa.framework/Versions/A/Headers/Cocoa.h
whereas the file from the larger build contains:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Cocoa.framework/Versions/A/Headers/Cocoa.h
/System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Versions/C/Headers/Foundation.
h
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Headers/
ApplicationServices.h
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Headers/CoreServices.
h
/System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Versions/C/Headers/AppKit.h
Does this help anyone to explain what is happening?

This is an odd one...
Whenever I build an application it usually comes in around 1 MB.
Today I noticed the application had shrunk to around 500 KB. This is
all great because upon .dmg the file is 164 KB as opposed to the
usual 400 KB. (I am all for saving bandwidth and HD space.)
I then deleted the old build folder from the project, and ran a new
build. The result was an application back at 1 MB!!
I thought this was odd so I looked at another application I have been
working on. Sure enough this was 200 KB in size. I then moved the
build folder to another part of the HD and re-ran the build. The new
build was 1 MB in size (where did the extra 800 KB come from?). When
I deleted this build, copied the old intermediates folder (the one
associated with the original 200 KB build) back to the build folder
and re-ran the build I get an app of 200 KB!!
Does this make sense to anyone? What is happening? What am I doing
wrong?
Thanks in advance,
