i just tried recompiling v0.0.2 (https://github.com/just-js/just/releases/tag/0.0.2) of just-js and comparing it to current. for the completely static build on ubuntu 22.04 i see following:

0.0.2 (v8 v8.4.371.18) - file size: 15.2 MB, startup RSS: 8.4 MB current (v8 v10.6.194.9) - file size: 19.5 MB, startup RSS: 12.3 MB

so, that's roughly 30% binary size increase and 50% greater startup memory usage in 2.5 years. =/
