I have FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE. Why most of bin (sbin) utilities are so big. For example, rm - 410 268 bytes, mv - 407 568 bytes, date - 423 748 bytes. Do they really contain only necessary code or have more than a half of trash? If you think my question is very stupid to answer, please give a few links to read about this problem.
