It would also help a lot, if not everything would be implemented again and again,

I recently grepped the fpc source to find a stable sort, and instead I only found QuickSort implementations.
Seven of them! In TFPList.Sort, TStringList.QuickSort, TFPSList.QuickSort, TFPBaseDitherer.QuickSort, TFPMedianCutQuantizer.QuickSort, TFPMedianCutQuantizer.QuickSortBoxes and paslzxcomp.qsort
Plus another one in the LCL in TCustomGrid.Sort.
If they were all replaced by a single implementation, it would already be much smaller
Totally agreed (was thinking about the number of csv read/write implementations in FPC+Lazarus), but I'm sure patches are welcome.

There seems to be a bug in Lazarus....
The executable files are too large muahahaha  >:D
Just trolling lol
This question is most disturbing and it never gets old. there are always some people asking this

If you turn of the inclusion of the debug symbols, the exe drops dramatically in size and is about the same size as exes built with
Delphi XE2.  I know on older versions of Lazarus and FPC this was not the case and the exes where huge even without the debug info.

If I forget, I always use the latest stable 32bit version of Lazarus and FPC. At the time of this signature that is Laz 3.0RC2 and FPC 3.2.2
OS: Windows 10 64 bit

One more wish about bug reports:
Somebody creates a report almost every time a source file is moved in Lazarus repo.
A clean build helps then, for example by selecting "Clean all" in Configure Build Lazarus dialog.

Recently the whole IdeIntf directory was moved and again we got a bug report.

Sometimes (only seldom) the trunk's compilation is broken but then it is fixed quickly, typically within an hour. There is really no need to create a bug report for it. It is not a bug in the same sense than other bugs.

If you cannot compile Lazarus, first try a clean build, then ask mailing list or forum!

Mostly Lazarus trunk and FPC 3.2 on Manjaro Linux 64-bit.
