goweight is a command-line tool that analyzes Go binaries and breaks down their size by module or package. It supports Go modules and can output JSON for tracking binary size in CI pipelines.

Use cases

  • analyze why my Go binary is so large
  • break down Go binary size by package
  • track Go binary size in CI
  • find which dependencies bloat my Go build
  • troubleshoot fat Go binary
  • output binary size report as JSON

When to choose

  • you build Go binaries and need to understand what contributes to their size
  • you want to monitor binary size regressions in CI

When to avoid

  • you need profiling of runtime performance rather than binary size
  • you work with non-Go binaries
