this sounds like a big coincidence at first... but you can never quite rule it
out. for example, the number above is 148*1024. = 17*4*1024. i'm not too sure
about things here, but my checkers engine (just the dll) seems to always be a
multiple of 4K (116K, 120K, 112K etc, depending on what exactly i do). so i
guess compilers tend to produce executables which are multiples of 4K in size.
if this is true (can anyone confirm?), then the coincidence is MUCH smaller. you
would have to use a hex editor and check the two files against each other!
