Hi Benjamin,

I wouldn't say I need DLLs to work fully _really_ badly. The only 
non-negligible issue with single very large binaries that's 
crossed my mind is patching, but we're years away from having to 
worry about that too much. That being said, I'm definitely 
willing to do some testing, especially for something that helps 
us down the road. I'll follow up with you offline. Thanks!
