Twice as fast (or more) is just what I'm aware of in terms of "things that are possible to do today but aren't the default/ would take work to hack in". I don't even know what other options there are beyond that. But sure, twice as fast isn't fast, it's just faster. My point is that we're not at the point of serious diminishing returns, there's tons of stuff left to do.

If there was a magic pot of gold, it would be technically possible to precompile every crate version with every rustc version on every supported platform and distrivute those prebuilt rlibs to users through cargo. That would help with first compile times when using the standard tooling, and not just for proc-macros.

  Not with incremental compile times, which is what people are complaining about.

    Different people with different use cases have different complains. I haven't quantified but have certainly seen various complaints about both cases from different people.
