Delphi Generics - Please Improve Compiler and Linker to avoid extreme Bloating compared to C#

Based on the discussion during the last few days I decide to create a test sample to compare Delphi <-> C#.

see https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-16520

Not that I expect that something will happen to improve but in German we say
"Hope is the last to die".

    Dalija Prasnikar A little bit late, but I had to run some more tests before answering (added more feedback to https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-16520)

    In summary: $WEAKLINKRTTI brings about 33% less bloating of the resulting Execute. Using an alternative implementation of TObjectList could help as well. But I still think that EMBT should constantly try to optimize the generics compiler/linker environment. And to be fair Delphi Berlin 10.2 brought already a factor of about 4 under win32 in linker speed.
