Can people post their opinions on static linking of go binaries? Doesn't it result in increased size of runtime binaries when compared to those generated by C/C++?

Yep. It does; but then again my entire static binary (no dependency on libc even) is around 10 MB in size...

I love being able to pull down a docker container that fast!
