[In 2018](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/building-stand-alone-helloworld-produces-many-dlls-being-200mb-big/9341/6) my usecase was writing a plugin for a blender-like program. Now it is mostly machine control in industrial environments. But please don’t turn this discussion into “Why do you need small binaries for that?”.  
Binary size doesn’t need to be squeezed, just reasonable. On par with other compiled languages.
