Also, if you use NSIS and its built-in compression, you can probably distribute the lib/ directory as a set of files instead of a zip. This will save loading time for modules, allow easier installation of modules, and will obviate LibZip (and the 111K it uses when uncompressed). Also, the tinyperl you're shipping doesn't seem to be UPX'd. Your version is 16KB; the UPX'd version is 3.5KB. Finally, UPX'ing all the files in the auto directory of lib.zip will save you a good amount of space.
Good luck!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
