I noticed that the vtk libraries included with Freesurfer took up 800MB of disk space. Upon investigation of this I noticed that all the shared libraries were unstripped. After stripping them they only took up 100MB. I was thinking that if there was no compelling debugging reason to leave the symbols in the vtk libraries then stripping them should lead to a much smaller download size of the freesurfer distro.
