Description
We got
```
LINK : fatal error LNK1201: error writing to program database 'C:\b\google\cloud\storage\benchmarks\storage_throughput_vs_cpu_benchmark.pdb'; check for insufficient disk space, invalid path, or insufficient privilege
```
when building `core` feature for `storage_grpc` in `debug` mode.
We cannot use larger runner because the cost is high.
We need to research any way to reduce the PDB size of storage_grpc debug build.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the `storage_grpc` `core` feature build in `debug` mode on the Windows runner and inspect the reported PDB-size failure. Research ways to reduce the debug build's PDB size without increasing runner capacity. Done means the build completes within the existing runner constraints and the approach is documented.
