Really ? I didn't use Go much but it had by far the shortest compile time of any language I ever used.

- metadat 3y agoYeah, it's the best ..until you try to build a native executable GUI, then it's slower than cold tar. Blasphemous.. because how TF did Win95 + Delphi work so gosh darn well on 0.01% as many resources, and then we got to here? :D Literally.. the machine has 40 fast cores and 384GB of very fast memory. Wow, just.. kind of nauseating. It could be a case study, I'm sure, because this exceeds even the compiler bloat of Electron.
- yogorenapan 3y agoCGO being slow is unavoidable. It’s external to Go and (afaik) has to be rebuilt every time
- ajwillia_ms 3y agoIt doesn’t have to be rebuilt every time. The incremental parts are missing when compared to the Go compiler, but when coding a GUI app with Go you’re not modifying the C packages behind the scenes so they won’t need recompiled. This means one rather slow compile to start and then it’s back to super fast!
