NativeAOT produces very large __LINKEDIT segment on macOS #86707
Description
Description
NativeAOT on macOS typically produces binaries about twice the size with large, almost zero-filled __LINKEDIT segments. Is this expected？
Reproduction Steps
dotnet new console --aot --output Test.Console
cat > ./Test.Console/Program.cs << EOF
using var client = new HttpClient();
Console.WriteLine(await client.GetStringAsync("https://example.com"));
EOF
dotnet publish ./Test.Console/Test.Console.csproj
ls -lh ./artifacts/publish/Test.Console/release
Expected behavior
win-x64
5.0M Test.Console.exe
22M Test.Console.pdb
linux-x64
6.6M Test.Console
19M Test.Console.dbg
Actual behavior
osx-x64
11M Test.Console
24M Test.Console.dwarf
% bloaty ./artifacts/publish/Test.Console/release/Test.Console
