I don’t think so. Apart from dynamically typed languages which need to store the type with the value, it’s always 1 byte, and that doesn’t depend on architecture (excluding ancient or exotic architectures) or optimisation flags.
Which language/architecture/flags would not store a bool in 1 byte?
things that store it as word size for alignment purposes (most common afaik), things that pack multiple books into one byte (normally only things like bool sequences/structs), etc

You know that depending on what your code does, the same C that people are talking upthread doesn’t even need to allocate memory to store a variable, right?
Depending on the language
And compiler. And hardware architecture. And optimization flags.
As usual, it’s some developer that knows little enough to think the walls they see around enclose the entire world.
Fucking lol at the downvoters haha that second sentence must have rubbed them the wrong way for being too accurate.

How does that work?
