One subtle advantage of dynamic linking would be saving space by making

The key word in your sentence is "subtile" ...
How much performance gains does static linkage actually provide in this
particular case?
In the overwhelming majority of general cases, such kind of
performance gains are close to immeasurable, distorted/overlayed by
other effects (ld.so caches, ld.preload, disk caches, etc.) and hardly
ever user noticeable.
