IMHO you should already be happy with the internal linker because you are
now able to create a smartlinked lazarus without requiring 1+ GB of memory.
Please stop asking for pathetic requirements. Especially for things where
you don't know where you are talking about and therefor without in-depth
analyses where things could be improved.
