Hi Jarred,

The docs say that Bun uses clonesfiles / hardlinks (yay). But it also states that clonefiles don't benefit space saving:

> This benefit does not extend to macOS, which uses clonefile for performance reasons

As far as I know, clonefiles are COW, which should not take any space except the extra inode.
