[gst-devel] gstreamer core optimizations.

[Stefan Kost]

Hi,

you can slim down the core a bit by disabling features. Try enabling  
the binary registry, disabling loadsave,index,trace. You can also  
optimize on the glib level by doing adding these to you cflags for a  
release build:
   G_DISABLE_ASSERT, G_DISABLE_CHECKS, G_DISABLE_CAST_CHECKS

Then of course only ship the plugins you need.
