We anticipate that these changes should reduce the default size of ACE
by around 100-200 kbytes.<P>

As the effort to reduce TAO's footprint continues, we are planning
several modifications for TAO that should reduce the footprint for
both the full CORBA and minimum CORBA configurations by around 300-400
Kbytes.  The list below contains an estimate of the impact of each one
of these changes, along with
