Your application is medium-large, not very large. You'll know you're at
the very large stage when the linker stops working. When the compiler
runs out of heap space while it is still working its way through your
include files. When you can't debug your program even under Magic CodeView.
THEN you've got a very large application! May you never have to work on
such a beast :-) :-). (I, unfortunately, have and am. Selective use of
/Zi/Od is only the first stage of this particular disease :-))
