    VB.NET Image smaller than C#..Why?

    My client is trying to decided on whether or not to push his developers to C# or VB.NET. One good point that he brought up was that he developed two identical small apps, one in C# and the other in VB.NET. Surprisingly (at least 2 me..), the VB.NET image was reasonably smaller. Anyone has any ideas why?

    both on the same computer? maybe if in different computers the framework will call api's with different names that will perform different actions!

    I wouldnt base a decision on the size of the final compiled exe or dll file, that would be a very silly decision. Which on is faster? That would be a good comparison, or which one is easier for the current developers.

    I agree. This isn't going to make or break his decision. It was just a question that came up in conversation..

    I did a small comparison of identical programs, one in VB and one in C# and they both came out the same size.
