How big is your binary, why do you need to reduce its size? I ask
because most of the time this question is the result of a link gone bad
where part of the linked binary lives in low memory space and part lives
in high memory space. As a result, the .bin has a huge amount of filled
(unused) data between the two.
Best regards,
