Large tables in read-only sections are loaded on demand. So, if the input file is, say, in ASCII, only a small part of the tables get loaded into memory. The 'libunistring-optional' module, used by GNU gettext, GNU wget, and others, leaves the way to deal with this dependency to the user or distro: Users who don't have libunistring installed get binaries which include the tables (via gnulib); whereas distros which pre-install libunistring will get binaries that are linked against libunistring.so.
