smaller size of dll in bin folder after (re)build without run

[Gabriel Lozano-Morán]

ASP.NET v1.1.4322
Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Architect
Client: Windows XP SP2

Does someone know why the output dll increases in size after running the web
application? When I build my web app the output dll is about 16KB after
running (F5) the application the file size increase tot 92KB.

Thanks

to make the compiles go faster, vs.net use incremental compiles (only
compiles new code and adds to the existing obj lib). a rebuild does a fresh
compile.

Wouldn't it be more logical that a "rebuild solution" would mean a "rebuild"
of all the projects in the solution instead of a build? I have even tried
removing all the dll's for all the projects from the obj and bin folder. But
after a rebuild of my solution the dll stays 16KB. It's only after the
rebuild of the asp.net application project that the file size is correct.
