SIZE(1) General Commands Manual SIZE(1)

size - print the size of the sections in an object file

size [ option ... ] [ object ... ]

Size (without the -m option) prints the (decimal) number of bytes required by the __TEXT, __DATA and __OBJC segments. All other segments are totaled and that size is listed in the `others' column. The final two columns is the sum in decimal and hexadecimal. If no file is specified, a.out is used.

The options to size(1) are:

-
Treat the remaining arguments as name of object files not options to size(1).
Print the sizes of the Mach-O segments and sections as well as the total sizes of the sections in each segment and the total size of the segments in the file.
When used with the -m option, also print the addresses and offsets of the sections and segments.
When used with the -m option, print the values in hexadecimal (with leading 0x's) rather than decimal.
Specifies the architecture, arch_type, of the file for size(1) to operate on when the file is a universal file. (See arch(3) for the currently know arch_types.) The arch_type can be "all" to operate on all architectures in the file. The default is to display only the host architecture, if the file contains it; otherwise, all architectures in the file are shown.

otool(1)

The size of common symbols can't be reflected in any of the numbers for relocatable object files.
