SOF Files content are Different after each time of Compilation!!!! Is It Normal??

Why the SOF files content (in binary) are different every time I recompile a same project? Is it normal? Is it possible to make the SOF files content always the same for each time compilation? ...

Thanks Rysc.

I tried to make two identical copies and compile them as you suggested. Two of the SOF files are slightly different (they will have huge different if one of them compiled with no \db) since some of the files in /db will be have minor different each time of compilation. Since they are all in binary, i can not understand which parts that they are different.
