	I think he's comparing plt-setup.exe (or whatever the file name is) and the actual installed directory... That would be a logical ratio, since the installation compiles a lot of code and keeps the source, so it would grow quite a lot...

		I'm sorry -- what are you comparing exactly? Are you comparing
		drscheme.exe to the result of making a stand alone executable? If so,
		that's not entirely unexpected. DrScheme.exe is not a standalone
		executable (it must be inside the plt tree to function, which is larger
		than 87 megabytes).
		
		Our standalone executable size needs work. It hasn't been a high
		priority, so far....
