The key advantage of shared objects are that the text page(s) for the
shared object can be shared between all processes/threads on the system
reducing the physical memory footprint of all processes.  Consider libc,
which is shared by pretty much every process on the system - if each had
their own subset because they were statically linked, the overall system
physical memory usage would be significantly increased, reducing the
capacity of the machine because of all the duplicated text (code).
