  That's all right.  You do have a point.  On a system which demand
  loads in an EXE from disc, EXE size is not a major factor that
  outweighs all others.

  But decreasing working set size does help performance, as we have all
  seen with the release of WARP Three.  However, working set size is
  only obliquely related to overall EXE size (if at all).
