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:

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 ?
