- JepZ 10y agoIt is not. It was one of the design goals of the language to compile fast... https://talks.golang.org/2012/splash.article https://talks.golang.org/2012/splash.article So I am wondering too what this is all about.
- wtbob 10y agoSince they've switched to a Go compiler from the previous C one, compile times have been pretty terrible.
- pjmlp 10y agoThey are still quite good comparing with C and C++ code bases, usually measured in hours for a "make world". Apparently there are some optimizations coming up on newer versions.
- solidsnack9000 10y agoWhat was the delta, though? Generally graphs comparing version to version seem pretty okay.
