Why are my Go executable files so large?
Says someone who has never actually tried to do that. You can statically link with Musl. But you can't really statically link with Glibc.

Technically speaking OP only suggested statically linking (a) libc, not glibc specifically, and musl is a libc.

Not sure what’s up with the combative tone? FWIW, I work as an operating systems developer. We sell several products incorporating a few in house libc variants. They are most certainly statically linked.
