Current (CVS) version of GNU Go executable should be around 4.3M with
debug information, 2.3M without.  Version 3.4 was about the same size,
3.2 was larger.  The largest GNU Go executable was somewhere between
versions 3.2 and 3.4 - around 6.5M / 4.4M.

I have no idea of pre-3.2 GNU Go size, but presumably it was way
smaller.  Are you sure you compared your size with size of a same
version binary?
