But then we have the same complaint against Electron, namely large deployment sizes and no shared memory, no?

this part is important: > A pure Rust desktop app stack

I think the parent is imagining a desktop with servo available as a standard lib, in which case you're left with the same complaints as Tauri, not electron; that the system version of Servo might be out of date.

Yeah, multiple Tauri apps could theoretically share a Servo library.

Though I’d also be interested to see how slim it could be with static linking.

Presumably a lot of code could be compiled out with dead code analysis? Or compile flags could remove old compatibility cruft and unneeded features?
