Size of generated programs

I've had egcs up and running for a few days now, and have encountered no
problems with the programs I've compiled (other than the ones I make for 
myself).  One thing I've noticed is that the stripped executables are 
significantly larger than those I get with gcc2.  I compile with

-O3 -ffast-math -funroll-loops -malign-*=0  -malign-double -march=pentium (or
-m486).

Any idea why this happens?
