| LLD | Binary size in bytes | | LLD 6.0.1 | 43,791,192 | | LLD 8.0.0 1cfcf404f6b23943405bc3c5bb5940b10b914624 | 43,861,056 | | LLD 8.0.0 1cfcf404f6b23943405bc3c5bb5940b10b914624 `--start-lib` | 43,844,760 | | LLD 8.0.0 1cfcf404f6b23943405bc3c5bb5940b10b914624 + this patch | 6,281,488 | | For `--start-lib` I wrapped `--start-lib`/`--end-lib` around all object files. As I expected `--start-lib` didn't make much difference. The dependencies containing debuginfo that I want to be GCed away are already packaged into static libraries before being passed to the final link.
