Hi!

I noticed that in the Cargo.toml file for the Tauri part, Link-Time Optimization (LTO) for the project is not enabled. I suggest switching it on since it will reduce the binary size (always a good thing to have) and will likely improve the application's performance a bit.

I suggest enabling LTO only for the Release builds so as not to sacrifice the developers' experience while working on the project since LTO consumes an additional amount of time to finish the compilation routine. If you think that a regular Release build should not be affected by such a change as well, then I suggest adding an additional dist or release-lto profile where additionally to regular release optimizations LTO will also be added. Such a change simplifies life for maintainers and others interested in the project persons who want to build the most performant version of the application. E.g., check cargo-outdated Release profile.

Basically, it can be enabled with the following lines:

[profile.release]
lto = true

According to the official Tauri documentation, you may also be interested in enabling other optimizations.

Thank you.

@zamazan4ik
Thank you for pointing this out! LTO is a new concept to me, and as someone still learning Tauri and Rust, your suggestion is a great opportunity for me to grow my skills further. I appreciate the detailed explanation and will definitely implement this in future developments. Your feedback is incredibly helpful—thank you again! 🙏
