Running ‘strip --strip-debug guix-daemon’ makes it go from 10 MiB to just 1 MiB (this is C++!). Also, guix-daemon is statically-linked against the Nix libraries, whereas nix-daemon is dynamically linked against them. Here, /path/to/nix/lib/nix weighs in at around 2 MiB. Does that answer your question? Ludo’.
