The change in binary size compares with the previous LCL release so version 4.8.7 - LCL Release 4 should be smaller than version 4.8.7 - LCL Release 3
Since there's no previous 5.5 release for LCL, the comparison does not apply

but as I now used it, the opposite is the case:
With VirtualTreeView version 4.8 my program binary size was
4,792,851 bytes.
After switching to version 5.5 (together with LCLextension 0.6)
the binary increases to
5,962,259 bytes.
Is that as expected?
With the port of 5.x Delphi branch, comes the new features but also the increased size.
Anyway i think the increased size is too big. I will investigate to see if is related to changes in original code or something related to the port

I now switched back to version 4.8 and the binary is back to the smaller
size.
Together with the changes in code I would have to do and the lesser number
of supported OSs I don't see any benefit in using version 5.5.
What OS does not work with 5.5?
Are there any?
You must refer to original code documentation, which is really lacking to describe the changes. You must dig at changes file https://github.com/Virtual-TreeView/Virtual-TreeView/blob/master/CHANGES.txt or in the google group: https://groups.google.com/forum/?nomobile=true#! searchin/virtual-treeview/released|sort:relevance

I just switched to VirtualTreeView 5.5. Here

it says, that the binary would be smaller with version 5.5
