I've seen several LLVM backed languages that suffered from Slow compile tiles (eg. a recent post on Crystal mentioned this) and thought it was generally attributed to LLVM. And I hadn't heard anyone talk about clang as being fast and even you seem to be saying it is still slow, just not as slow as others (damning with faint praise?).
- loeg 6y agoI don't have good data for this, but Clang is much faster compiling C than C++, for example. I don't know if it's fast or slow in any absolute sense; it's not too far off from GCC time-wise and produces approximately-as-good optimized code for my purposes.
