@sbc100 Could you weigh in on if you think that building liblldb as a static library is a good idea here? Generally we build liblldb as a shared library that includes lldb, llvm, and clang libraries (so it tends to run a bit larger). @anutosh491 Provided some numbers with `-O3`, but is this expected? I personally would prefer not to build liblldb static but I am not familiar enough with the constraints of Emscripten to say whether or not a shared liblldb is wholly unviable here.

@anutosh491 Could you try to collect numbers with `-Oz`? That may give us a different baseline. I believe that building LLDB as shared with `-Oz` is probably overall easier than building it static.
