Compiling Irrlicht with MSVS C++ make is huge

When I compile Irrlicht with MS Visual Studio 2003 C++ it finished with no error/ warning but the DLL is 2140kb (instead of 1348kb) and it's incredible slow! (4FPS instead of 30)

I made sure to use the "Release" configuration and I didnt made any changes. What might this be?

Thx

You freshly unpack source.zip, open Irrlicht.vcproj, set up Release mode, compile and have then this big and slow dll in your Release folder?

Yes. But what ever it was it's gone since I reinstalled my computer today. Strange...

If you formatted then your clean new environment might have helped.

Perhaps you had a lot of unnecesary environment variables in your system created by other programs.
