OPENSSL_SMALL_FOOTPRINT

[Manish Patel via openssl-users <openssl-users@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

  I am trying to upgrade from 1.1.1c to 3.0.8.

However doing so increases the libcrypto.a size tremendously.

Some .so we create increased by 1.6MB, which is ~38% increase.

It increases our final binary size by 1.1M which is ~27% increase
to our previous (using 1.1.1c) binary and very much unacceptable
in our environment.

Above increase is despite of reducing all unused modules as follows:
  no-afalgeng \
  no-aria \
  no-asan \
  no-asm \
  no-async \
  no-autoalginit \
  no-autoerrinit \
  no-autoload-config \
  no-bf \
  no-blake2 \
  no-camellia \
  no-capieng \

  no-dso \
  no-dtls \

I introduced OPENSSL_SMALL_FOOTPRINT, which barely reduced size by ~100KB!
Any ideas?

Thank you
Manish.
