Comment (by djowel):

 If you are using Boost.Phoenix, it's a good first step to try to not use
 it. It is possible to make semantic-action free parsers. Check out the
 compiler tutorial examples. Expression template libraries are notorious in
 generating big debug libs with visual studio (not so much with GCC). What
 I am attempting is to lessen the effects of ET at compile time and by
 doing so I am also able to reduce the debug output. Work is being done in
 that direction with Spirit X3. Alas, it's still in development and far
 from production ready. It has a lot of components already implemented thus
 far. If you'd want to take an early look and try it out, I'd be happy to
 assist you.
