I'm mostly familiar with the linking process on Linux but it shouldn't
conceptually be much different on Windows.

When statically linking to some libraries the linker only picks the
object files that are needed by the final program out of every static
library it encounters. [1]

So it shouldn't matter at all how big your intermediate .lib files are.

Best wishes,
Marcus
