Do correct me if I’m wrong here, but aren’t those embedded libc only excel in taking less space? I wouldn’t be so sure if they’d be less resource intensive. If any, it may be more, due to the CPU vs memory trade-off.

I didn’t really understand, but I did heard that standard musl is lightweight but the performance is much worse than glibc. But chimera Linux changed the allocator to mimalloc that is bit less light then the standard allocator for musl but still much lighter than glibc. Also it’s performance is very close to glibc and can even beat it sometimes
