[Dev-C++] executable size

[The Tone's. <to...@ds...>]

hi,

noob here again.

I notice that simply doing a #include <windows.h> increases my executable size
by some 250k without touching any functions in my code within WIN32.

Again, I am a Java programmer, so I am trying to get my head around how this
stuff works.

Is this increase in size due to needing a larger 'text' segment for all of the
stuff defined in <windows.h> and the 5 zillion #includes it pulls in ?

Or ... is this because libs or something are getting statically linked into the
executable ?

TIA,
Tony
