How to disable all go compiler build output compressions?

[Aurora]

I've embedded an empty 100MB file in my Go code, for some testing purposes.

When I run 'go build', the binary output would be something around 20MB.

I want the output binary to be more than 100MB, its real size.

How's this compression being applied to the binary?

How to disable all such optimisations?

Please clarify what you mean by "embedded an empty 100MB file". What does "empty" mean and how did you "embed" it? Can you show us an example of what you're trying to do (obviously replacing the 100MB of "empty" with a placeholder).

By empty, I mean it didn't actually contain any actual data, just zeros.

That's why it's being compressed that much.
I embedded the file into the Go code using the standard embed directive.

```

package main 

  

 import _ "embed" 

  

 //go:embed .empty 

 var data []byte

```

It seems you not interact with data variable in main or other places, so go automatically drop it

Just add `print(len(data))` or something like this in main function and binary instantly grow up
