Build option to be able to make the same executable as the pre-built multichaind

Question

Hi,

 

I'm trying to modify the MultiChain source code to apply MultiChain to my research.

So, I cloned the MultiChain git repository and built it without any option.

However, the size of the built MultiChain executable is too big (about 110 MB).

When I checked the pre-built multichaind in the multichain-1.0.2.tar, the it's size is approximately 9MB.

Could you let me know a build option to be able to make the same as the pre-built multichaind?

 

Regards,

Sungjin.

If you look in the compiation instructions, you'll see that the last step is to use the strip command to remove debugging symbols.
