Hi Rooters - it would be really nice if somebody who has already installed icc and built ROOT with it would also post to the list comparison of the sizes of ROOT libraries as compiled with icc and gcc. Would be a very important piece of information. Just for comparison - what we are seeing at CDF (we're currently using KAI compiler, KAI was bought by Intel not so long ago) is that when we compile our code in debug mode, then the GCC3-compiled libraries are larger than the KAI-compiled libraries by a very large - 5-10 times - factor (although the code is rather heavily templated...) thanks a lot, Pasha
