First you need to tell us what you mean by code size.
To many people, "code size" is actually the size of the binary code. But 
I suppose you are talking about source code here? (If we were talking 
about binary code size, I'd venture that the opposite would be true. The 
size would be likely to be significantly bigger.)

Anyway, this is a very common statement, regardless of the project, that 
using C++ would invariably lead to fewer lines of code. But except for 
small examples tailored just to show that, I have yet to see a formal 
study clearly showing the point. And I have seen a lot of C++ projects 
that were horribly bloated, unnecessarily complex and with a un 
unreasonablme mess of class hierarchies.

But beyond that, does fewer lines of code always mean less coding effort 
and easier maintenance? Not necessarily.

Feel free to rewrite the Linux kernel in C++ though. Or write your own 
kernel with equivalent functionality. Don't forget to write it such that 
it can survive 30 years without major rewrites every couple of years. 
And we'll talk.
