With all the text strings and all the interrupts and associated volatile variables floating around in this year's code, I wouldn't expect a whole lot of extra optimization. It's my guess that most "reduced bulk" will still have to come from effective algorithms and efficient implementations rather than compiler tricks.

Fortunately, I have something of a knack for efficient implementations.
