(on my posting about the size of HyperCard 2.0B25) "It's a Bad Idea
to go predicting code sizes based on betas. Some betas contain debug
code, which of course would make them bigger and slower."

I just had a look for debugger symbols, and apart from a small number
of glue routines, I couldn't find any. This suggests that most of the
debug code has been removed.
