I propose not only getting the main kix32 executable file size smaller in some way but also the possibility of a "light" version geared towards the most common used commands!



I don't agree with a stripped down version that has only a subset of commands and functions. I do agree though that the EXE could be made smaller and posted the following suggestion a while back.
MakeEXE for KiX 4.5

BTW, your batch file with FC.EXE would not lessen the network traffic since the bytes needed for a file compare is the same as if you just ran it from the DC. The way some people manage versioning is to calculate and store the CRC of the seed copy and then check the CRC on just the local copy.
