Hello, Thanks for this, and also sorry for the lazy question.
My testing on my machine indicates a limit of 2GB total limit on compile: too much data in section SXCOFFTOC (over 2e+09 bytes) too much data in section SDATA (over 2e+09 bytes) I have built a bash script that creates large random files of a fixed size and then generates a short Go program that embeds them, increasing the number of files with each run, so you can see when your compile fails. You can find the bash and instructions here: https://github.com/gnewton/test_go_embed I just threw it together, so might be a little rough around the edges. Feedback welcome. Question: Wondering why the above error complains about too much data in *two* sections: are the embedded files stored across multiple sections (I know nothing of how this is done internally to the elf format)?
