I don't think this does very much since our packages are stripped but just for you I rebuilt the package with "Release". Please check and report before and after memory usage.

Yeah, I wasn't expecting much difference. It was mostly just a correctness thing.

Install size drops by 0.45MB and memory usage on startup drops by 0.3MB, so happy enough with the results.

FYI, it seems like MinSizeRel is just Release but with -Os instead of -O2. So I would not use that.
