Do you mean compile-time performance or runtime performance?
- dbaupp 11y agoBoth, there's at least one commit that directly affects the performance of LLVM (improves caching, AIUI), and the patches that improve runtime performance will improve compile time too: the rust compiler is written in Rust and so benefits from the LLVM tweaks. (However, I believe both are relatively small.)
