perf(build): shrink release binaries via strip + thin LTO#12
Merged
Conversation
Tune [profile.release]: strip = true, lto = "thin", codegen-units = 1. These cut binary size with no runtime cost — thin-LTO + a single codegen unit typically improve throughput too, so they're aligned with the perf ethos, not against it. opt-level stays at 3; opt-level "z"/"s" and panic = "abort" are deliberately avoided (they'd hurt the throughput- sensitive proxy / change worker-panic isolation). Sizes (release): beyond-ai (gateway): 21.5 MB -> 14.0 MB (-35%) beyond-ai-agent: 11.6 MB -> 8.3 MB (-28%) strip also shrinks the Docker image (it builds with this profile), so no Dockerfile change is needed. Cost: slower release builds. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

striponly drops debug symbols;thinLTO + a single codegen unit optimize across the crate graph and typically improve throughput, so they fit "performance is a feature" rather than trading against it.opt-levelstays at 3.opt-level = "z"/"s"andpanic = "abort"are deliberately avoided — they'd hurt a throughput-sensitive proxy / change worker-panic isolation.stripalso shrinks the Docker image (the Dockerfile builds with this profile), so no Dockerfile change is needed.Cost: slower release builds (the agent went ~20s → ~32s locally; gateway similar).
