I hope you have used Qt 4.8.7 or something in 4.x branch. I hate Qt 5.x. It became a bloatware after 5 in my opinion.

As long as you do not use QML (which is retarded for Windows imo) ,or not intended producing for mobile ; I think you are completely fine with 4.x. It is much more stable, compact and developed by a real company.

I'm using 5.9. What's wrong with the 5 series? I haven't had any issues with it.
I'm not using QML, just UI files with Visual Studio integration.

If I remember correctly, not only DLL files are bigger, it needs more DLL files. And one of them was like 20~ mbytes which is related to ICU.

There were some other things but I do not remember them now.

Nice profile picture btw :D

Well, i just checked and Qt5 needs 3 dlls, around 5 Mb each. WxWidgets has more than that.
The standalone install doesn't require an ICU lib, but i may have to add it for it to work out.

The Angelscript IDE uses it and is 25 Mb compressed in a release build, but it has libraries that probably aren't required so it can be trimmed down.

And thanks, i saw the picture on Imgur and i just had to use it :P

In my instance, it needed platforms/qwindows.dll, qoffscreen.dll, qminimal.dll even though dependency walker not showing them along with ICU and classic Qt dlls. Dont know about ICU, I just needed to put that in the archive. Maybe there is a way for not putting it in the archive but I dont know.

DLLs are more than 30 mbytes.

For Qt 4. It is like 10~ mbytes for DLLs.
Look at my old projec: (There are some extra dlls that should not be considered though)

Qt 5: https://transfer.sh/tULS5/Flappy%20Bird_x86_win32_v1.2.0.zip
Qt 4: https://transfer.sh/15SPsd/FlappyQt_CD_Demo_win32.zip

One of the icu dlls I put was probably cropped version I found randomly on the internet.
.

And one more thing,

There was something wrong with Qt's OpenGl support. Maybe its fixed in 5.9 but if possible, do not use Qt's wrappers for OpenGL.
