- a helm 3 distro is 45M

- a terraform distro is 59M

- a kubectl distro is 44M

getting rust installed on a windows machine required not just a rust distro, but a visual c++ library set over 1G.

at a certain employer, the size of the teams golang tool was well over 100MB.

So - 50MB to start with a full Lisp image? yeah, sure, no worries.



Plenty of Scheme implementations produce portable-ish binaries too.


I've never really schemed, only Lisp'd in a common sort of way.

I've heard that some scheme things will compile out to C even.


Yep, Gambit not only compiles to C but also interoperates with it, much like Nim.


But you don’t need to give people Rust , just the binaries. The original dig is clearly targeted at Python/Ruby/JS


you forgot my node_modules folder
