It turned out that, for some reason, generating debug symbols was turned on for my Deployment style.

Then it turned out that, without ZeroLink, I had to include an extra source file in the host app, full of functions it never uses. I'm starting to miss CodeWarrior.

One that was done, my plugins were down to a more reasonable 700-900k, but to balance that out the app exploded from 20k to 6MB. Was that 20k file some kind of ZeroLink stub thing, while all the real code was somewhere else?

Thanks, that helped a lot. The plugins are now another ~150k smaller, and the app is down to 1MB. I can live with that. I guess the real mystery is, why wasn't this option turned on to begin with?
