> Is there any tool to reduce the executable size?
If you're only interested in specific drivers, the best way by far to reduce both executable size and build time is to use the SOURCES option, which tells the MAME build system to only build MAME for the specific drivers listed. For example, make REGENIE=1 SOURCES=src/mame/drivers/atarig1.cpp,src/mame/drivers/mw8080bw.cpp would reconfigure the MAME build to only include the atarig1 and mw8080bw drivers. (You would only need to add REGENIE=1 the first time you did this build, since that's a general option for reconfiguring the build system.) The resulting MAME executable would be much smaller and quicker to build, but would also only be able to run games from those specific drivers.
SOURCES is described a bit more in the MAME documentation's page on compilation, especially in the section on building the Emscripten version for embedding MAME in web browsers. The remarks on SOURCES in that part of the documentation also apply to ordinary builds.
