I haven’t done any Rust-on-Linux development, but it seems like this would be a non-issue there? A lot of the compile time issues for Rust come from cargo packages pulling in tons of monomorphized types, but I assume Rust-on-Linux has few-to-no dependencies (I’m pretty sure they don’t even use the standard library).
- sodality2 3y agoYeah, when I’m doing zero-dependency development my compile times from scratch are never more than 5 seconds. Standard library actually shouldn’t increase compile time at all really, since it’s prebuilt and included for most platforms (excepting -Z build-std).
- Analemma_ 3y agoI didn't mean to imply that the Rust standard library increases compile times, just that Rust-on-Linux is so dependency-lite (as evidenced by the lack of std) that I expect compile times to be good.
- sodality2 3y agoTrue, I just mentioned that because it's bitten me before and I didn't expect it at all :)
