I was trying to minimize the code size in my iOS 4 game, so I tried enabling all the strip-related commands, and using the -Os flag.

However, strangely I still found that the binary was quite big, and when I manually tried to strip the binary using the console (“using the strip command”), it actually reduced it from 18 mb to 12.3 mb.

Does Xcode actually use a different strip mechanism, or anything like that? The problem with using the console strip command is that it gives a message saying that it invalidates the code sign, so I wonder if it’s possible to get the code signing working after this strip command.

    Did you choose “Yes” in both “Deployment Postprocessing” and “Strip Linked Product”?

    Also, check that you have the right values for the build configuration you try to optimize.
