## Size of packages
To analyze the size of all go packages used during the build process, pass the `-work -a` build flags to `go build`.
-The `-a` flag forces go to rebuild all packages even if they are already up-to-date (e.g., in the build cache), while the `-work` flag instructs go to print path of the temporary work directory used for compiling the packages.

The path to the temporary work directory of `go-build` must be passed to `go-archive-analysis.sh` by setting it as an environment variable.
The analysis script will then read and parse the build data and print a sorted table of the package size in bytes followed by the package name.
