This is a perhaps over-fine semantic distinction, but I would argue that there's a qualitative difference between IR/language implementation and compilation speed. The former should not drive the language's features; the latter is a language feature.
- Ericson2314 8y agoIMO most discussion of the compilation speed is incredibly narrow-minded. We incremental compilation more than anything else. Programs barely change each rebuild, so that should solve all the performance problems without having to maim ourselves.
