Hi. Compiling using VC9 Express Edition. I'm ending up with a php_sqlsrv.dll of 88KB The VC9 x86 nts version supplied by MS (php_sqlsrv_53_nts_vc9.dll) is 227KB. If it had been just a few bytes, then OK, but to be over 40% smaller is a significant difference. Any ideas? As far as I can tell, it all works just fine too!
