I apologize. I got my post backward when I related the sizes. This post should clear it up.
The official MAME binary that I downloaded is larger. I just downloaded it again, and it is still very large. The binary contained in mame0144b_64bit.exe is around 104MB.
My compiled binary, using the official mingw64 tools and the default makefile, came out to around 66MB. This seems more like the expected the size of mame64.exe, looking at the other official builds.
I was wondering if I had made some mistake, as I expected to get something closer to the "official" build. I'm also wondering if the 64-bit official build is actually a debug build or if something is wrong with the package. It seems to be way too large, especially considering the results I and others are getting when compiling our own exe.
