Description:   Opened: 2002-06-25 11:36 0000 
I don't know if we are doing this already, but I see many of the users already 
user -fomit-frame-pointer and that indicates to me that many don't need tp 
debug, so why not set a USE varible maybe to automatically strip the installed 
ebuild after ended compilation for it's debug flags:  
 
The command would be:  
strip --strip-debug filename  
 
the LFS project stats this numbers:  
A dynamic Bash binary with debugging symbols: 1.2 MB  
A dynamic Bash binary without debugging symbols: 478 KB  
/lib and /usr/lib (glibc and gcc files) with debugging symbols: 87 MB  
/lib and /usr/lib (glibc and gcc files) without debugging symbols: 16 MB  
 
That means a smaller install, and if I remember correctly a faster system, as 
the binary we have to load is smaller.

This is already done by default.
