Dunno what you're doin, but my custom kernel is 35.44% *smaller* than
the stock kernel.GENERIC.
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1504134 Jun 29 18:23 kernel
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 2329748 May 17 18:05 kernel.GENERIC
I took out everything I didn't need and added in the things I wanted
just as you say you did. I didn't add in very much, I mostly pruned
my config.
