Message-ID: <508E1ECB.9090903@barfooze.de> Date: Mon, 29 Oct 2012 07:14:35 +0100 From: John Spencer <maillist-musl@...fooze.de> To: musl@...ts.openwall.com Subject: interesting discussion about static linking on luajit ML i thought some people here might be interested in a discussion that currently happens on luajit@...elists.org as usual, a strong bias against static linking can be seen, based on myths or bad experience with glibc. especially the statement here about memory usage seems to be a common misconception: http://www.freelists.org/post/luajit/Creating-a-statically-linked-executable-for-a-LuaJITC-program,22 rich, you recently said something about this topic on irc, iirc it was along the lines of: you'd need to link substantially huge parts of libc.a to use nearly as much memory, as is typically wasted with relocation overhead in dynamically linked apps, do i remember correctly ?
