Alpine Linux: Proposal to move Rust to main
This might be a little side-topic but IMO Alpine is famous for having a small byte size footprint.I love Rust to tears but it produces fairly huge binaries even in release mode and even with some symbols stripping.So if Alpine also plans to include various Rust tools I'd hope that this will prompt the core team to also work on reducing the sizes of the final Rust binaries.I don't want to sound entitled! I am very thankful to the entire Rust team. And Rust is hugely important nowadays. It's just that when it comes to distributing stuff in Dockerfiles (and fly.io, and several others) the Rust binaries stick out like a sore thumb. :\ They're fairly big.
