If programming in Rust on a medium-to-large project, you might be waiting minutes for your editor to finish checks to highlight compilation errors every time you save. That was me on a Rust project last year when I was trying to program on a 2019 macbook air with 16GB of RAM and 1.1 GHZ quad-core intel processor. Typical wait times to check what I'd written would be 30 seconds to just over a minute. It was excruciating.
I finally demanded the employer set me up with a cloud VM that I could use when working with that codebase, as the network lag with VS code opening the project remotely was so much more tolerable
