And so will go if it implements the optimizations they implement. GCC and LLVM are not putting sleep(10) everywhere just for the sake of longer compilation times.
- eikenberry 4y agoThen it won't do those optimizations. Fast compiler times are more important than being the fastest at runtime. It has to be "fast enough" and given the adoption I'd say the consensus is that it already is. More optimizations are all gravy at this point.
- mcronce 4y ago> Fast compiler times are more important than being the fastest at runtime. For you, maybe.
- eikenberry 4y agoIf you need the fasted language why are you using Go?
- mcronce 4y agoI don't. I avoid Go like the plague. My point was that you don't get to unilaterally decide for everybody whether fast compile times or runtime performance is more important.
