Motivation / Problem

I noticed preview binaries were huge. Had to investigate .. found the issue. Got sad.

Description

It turns out that having "-g" in the compile-statement causes
Emscripten to pick -g3, which makes for very big binaries. This
is very likely not your intention when building Emscripten, as
smaller really is better.

For comparison, with RelWithDebInfo the binary is ~80MB. With
Release it is ~7.4MB.

Limitations

Yeah and debug info is almost useless for emscripten anyway.
