### /PACKDATA Linker Option (OS/2)

Syntax: | Default:
/PACKD[ATA][:number] /NOPACKD[ATA] | /NOPACKDATA

Use /PACKDATA to produce more compact files by grouping neighboring data segments that have similar attributes, and assigning them to the same load segment.

Specify number to set the maximum size for a load segment. The linker will start new load segments as necessary to avoid exceeding the maximum. By default, the linker sets a maximum of 0xFfffFfff.

By default, the linker does not pack data segments.
