Being honest, 100MB is quite a bit larger than I was expecting.  Probably fine for CI business apps and such, but kinda rules out a lot of linux util type things.</text></comment>

Isn&amp;#x27;t there an option to tree shake&amp;#x2F;trim it? That&amp;#x27;s what .NET AOT compilation does (standard library is always included, sans the dependency on glibc or musl, which you can statically link into the binary as well should you need that)</text></comment>
