I am not sure if this is the correct forum for this question but I thought I would start here.  I also have the feeling that this is a rather dumb question.  However, I will put it out there and see what the responses are.

I saw that there is dead code elimination in 4.02.0 and I thought to myself that this would help make Core's very large binaries smaller.  So, I switch compilers and did a test.  Unfortunately, a small sample program compiled with ocamlopt and using Core.Std.List was still 11MB.  I very much doubt that my binary really needs to be 11MB.  Is there a way to shrink the size?  I had heard about namesapces elsewhere before but I think that discussion died.

All the best,
