The increase in size is not proportional. It is merely due to the amount
of code that you must have to support protected mode. i also think that
DJGPP includes all the code from header file declarations instead of just
what you need. DJGPP is far from perfect as I too have found out.
Remember, Turbo C (whence I too emigrated) is a commercial product. People
got paid to do nothing but sit around and work on it all day to make it
better. DJGPP is a free product. People work on it in their spare time.
In the long run DJGPP will be a better product because of this, but until
then it still needs lots of work. If I had 12 hours a day to work on it, I
might be able to get it up to Turbo C's level of performance in a year, but
I don't. It will get there though.

C code is like assholes, everyone's stinks but your own.
Looking at C code is like looking at your bedroom, a
complete mess to everone else, but you can tell them
where every little thing is.
C code is like Ex-Lax, great when it works but a pain
in the ass when it doesn't.
Explaining why C is better than Pascal is like explaining
why peanut butter is better than toe jam.
Explaining why Assembler is better than anything is like
explaining why being deaf is better than listening to
'The artist formerly known as Prince'.
