Hey, my name is Piotr and I work on language servers at Zed.

Right now you can run multiple language servers in a single project. Admittedly you cannot have multiple instances of a single language server in a single worktree (e.g. two rust-analyzers) - I am working on that right now, as this is a common pain point for users with monorepos.

I would love to hear more about the problems you are having with running language servers in your projects. Is there any chance for us to speak on our community Discord or via onboarding call (which you can book via https://dub.sh/zed-c-onboarding)?

Hey, Zed developer here. Indeed we do not bundle the LSP binaries into the final binary for the reasons you've stated; and I do agree that the binary is kind of big, though at present .dmg compression gets us a long way (as the .dmg itself is ~115Mb). Right now we ship an universal binary, so half of that size is essentially unused:

  size /Applications/Zed.app/Contents/MacOS/zed
  __TEXT __DATA __OBJC others dec hex
  120979456 475136 0 4336828416 4458283008 109bc0000 zed (for 
  architecture x86_64)
  117587968 458752 0 4336680960 4454727680 10985c000 zed (for 
  architecture arm64)

Then, each of these binaries includes about 40MB of assets. I've actually had a PR up (https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/3997) that reduced their size quite significantly, though that did not end up reducing the size of a .dmg itself, so I've scraped that. On top of that, we ship with debug symbols for symbolication of crashes (https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/Cargo.toml#L...).
