How to Minify Godot's Build Size (93MB –> 6.4MB EXE)

> The bad news is that it stores that decompressed data in your RAM, increasing the memory used by the game. Without UPX, my game uses ~53MB of RAM. With UPX, it's up to ~74MB.

The decompressed data will be in RAM either way. I assume it's the _compressed_ data that remains in RAM (the RAM usage seems to support this as well)

This is great! Those are some impressive savings.

Though sadly, for web exports, the vast majority of your loading time for at least your macOS/iOS users will be spent compiling shaders. The loading bar quickly goes from 0% to 90%, then the tab freezes for a few minutes as macOS sloooowly processes the GLSL. I don't know if there's anything to do about that.

Is there any hope for C# + Web exports in Godot? As an outsider to the ecosystem it seems like C# is "use the new codebase" and web exports is "use the old codebase" but I'm hoping I'm missing something.

Setup your gzip webserver configuration for wasm files and that gets the transferred bytes down by a huge chunk.

This is very helpful. I love Godot. Maybe not the best at anything but so fun to create with.
