This looks twice as good for one of MIPS configs:
text data bss dec hex filename
4908276 204104 2846304 7958684 79709c vmlinux.after
4941596 204104 2846304 7992004 79f2c4 vmlinux.before
$ file vmlinux
vmlinux: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, MIPS, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped
More than 30Kb gone, thanks a lot!
