@bunjavascript Eventually given the trend, one day installing bun will give you extra storage on your system.
English

@bunjavascript What's so cool about rust, why do you and others like it so much?
English

@bunjavascript why is this a metric that matters? saving 100% of 100MiB on disk is still a rounding error. what about runtime performance?
English

@bunjavascript 21% size reduction is huge for a runtime. Rust's LTO + dead code elimination really shines here. Curious how cold start times compare — in containerized envs that binary size delta matters more than people think.
English

@bunjavascript how the hek is that possible. I though rust is known for big binary size.
English

@bunjavascript I can go to bed tonight and dream of all the things I could do with an extra 18.7mb. Thanks for the extra space Bun.
English

@bunjavascript Is it still a vibe coded re-rewrite? I saw the analysis and seems like there were 0 additional security issues and all tests passed, so is the plan to continue vibe coding it cuz I believe it'll be difficult for a human to stay on track.
English

@bunjavascript Here is a diff from your zig -> rust port. These don't look like adult programming languages... They way you are using them. 50% of the port looks like Claude reinventing a kooky version of the standard library instead of calling it.

English

@bunjavascript You just proved that from @ziglang to Rust transformation has achieved smaller size, more efficient, less attack surface, improved memory leaks, all just due to @rustlang
👍
English

@bunjavascript Awesome! But I still have 30gb of other files. But glad we saved those precious MB. All jokes, great work!

@bunjavascript Bun is now officially smaller than a fullstack framework
English

@bunjavascript Hold on. Is this because glibc is a dependency now and all that functionality has been removed from Bun itself?
English

@bunjavascript Can we have some CVE attacks on Bun right now please? Vibe coders should pay the price in full.
English

@bunjavascript This is cool but you guys vibe coded the rewrite so I don't really care anymore, pmpm welcome back
English

@bunjavascript Doesn't it just cancel out all the times it got bigger but you didn't say anything.
English

@bunjavascript @jarredsumner Still waiting for the bun rewrite in assembly that will make the binary size 0mb
English

@bunjavascript My Rust soli lang/MVC framework binary is only 25MB Ok it do not cover bun's scope and it's mainly a web dev language lang.solisoft.net
English

@bunjavascript Bun really said:
"Actually, size does matter."
English


@bunjavascript Wow, soon it'll be smaller than an average webpage :)
English

@bunjavascript The amount of hard work and dedication from the Bun team is impressive.
English

@bunjavascript I'm thinking of stopping at the specific version before rust
