I received during my tenure several peer bonuses for unblocking the search or ads release by keeping the [redacted] under 2GiB. They are huge just because authors are lazy, not as an inevitable consequence of any technical choice that has been made. It was always easy for me (for some reason, easier than it was for the program's own maintainers) to use `blaze query` and a bit of critical thinking to break up some library that was always called `:util` into smaller pieces and thereby remove tens of megabytes from the linker output. People are just so lazy they aren't thinking about the consequences of their build targets. Most developer's main targets are much, much smaller. |
