  • nix

    Nix, the purely functional package manager

  • - it reduces bloat, because you can generate an environment or OS image with only the software needed to run a specific program or service

    My guess is that a big efficiency gain would come from the second point, because you don't waste CPU on code that you don't use.

    Does this make sense? Has anyone explored this?
