The executable will stay that size. MAME's framework is big, it's not only the drivers. What you can do is speed up the linking using lld as a linker, by doing set ARCHOPTS=-fuse-ld=lld before launching make. Remember to add REGENIE=1 if it isn't a clean compile.
Also, if you are using SOURCES you don't need to remove anything from the .lst files.
