Hi!
I started a discussion about enabling Link-Time Optimization (LTO) across all pop!_os projects to improve their general performance (more compiler optimizations can be done with LTO) and the binary size reduction (LTO usually leads to measurable binary size improvements) here - pop-os/pop#3386 . In pop-os/pop#3386 (comment) was proposed creating PRs into repos with enabling LTO - it's such a PR!
As a reference, I used the
cosmic-compRelease profile.I have made local quick build tests (Fedora 40, Rustc 1.80): the binary size from enabling
lto = "fat"is dropped from 24 Mib to 18 Mib.Thank you.
