How is the size of the binary compared to AppImage?

[Heus-Sueh]

Is it greater, is it less, or is it the same?
it would be nice to put examples and comparisons (in size, time to open...) in the readme 👍

Hi @Heus-Sueh , thanks for your feedback! It is usually larger, since arts is portable and cannot use host libraries, appimage by default mounts a ro filesystem and runs a program in it without any form of isolation (similar to pluging in a flash drive and executing a program in it); workarounds for this are AppRun and appimagebuilder, however they can't cover everything (like glibc in wine) and the program still runs on the host's root. I'll update the README.md with the mentioned info :)
