            Bug ID: 35460
           Summary: [LLD/ELF] - LLD produced reproduce file has abnormal
                    size.
           Product: lld
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: ELF
          Assignee: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
          Reporter: grimar at accesssoftek.com

I noticed the following strangeness.
Reproduce file size for clang has size 266.2 megabytes. Extracted data size is
189.9 megabytes. If I compress these files using file manager context menu to
tar, I get tar of size 190 megabytes, what is close to initial data size. 
I can link these files with LLD and it will produce 260+ megs file again.

Why there is 40% difference in size ? Is is expected ? It does not look good
for me, I am going to investigate this.
