An entire docker image for HAProxy is only 41 MB... deb is 1.6 MB


An entire docker image of nginx is 29 MB, alpine is 3.5 MB.


I compile static-pie HAproxy binaries using different TLS libraries. Size varies a little based on the versions and compile-time options for those libraries

For example, max sizes for the largest and smallest TLS libraries I have tried

OpenSSL 9.0MB

WolfSSL 4.6MB

OpenSSL bloat is unfortunate

Does Traefik allow any TLS libraries other than OpenSSL


Welcome to modern development, where no one gives a shit about binary size. It’s awful.
