Size of file php_phalcon.dll

Hi! I try build phalcon (last release without any change) from zephir source in Windows. Everything seems ok but one thing - php_phalcon.dll in cphalcon\ext\Release is 77 MB. Precompiled dll from official site is 3.8 MB. What i do wrong?

It is actually 4.61 mb when downloaded from https://phalcon.io/en/download/windows

Maybe 4.61, but question is why my file is so large :(

Instead of compiling from cphalcon/ext, you can compile from cphalcon/build/safe, cphalcon/build/32bits or cphalcon/build/64bits which results in a smaller file.

So, biger size it's normal and i can don't worry about it?
