I disagree that it’s unfair to compare the two. The performance difference between go and rust is far less than the difference between go and python, it has a garbage collector sure but it’s an example of a language designed for fast compilation time that achieves an order of magnitude faster compile times than rust
- jplusequalt 1y agoI think you're missing the point of my comparison. Rust has a lot more going on than Go, so it feels unfair.
- sagarm 1y agoGo has a lot less going on than Rust partially because compile times were a priority.
- jplusequalt 1y agoRust has long compilation times because the borrow checker was a priority. They're very different languages.
- maccard 1y agoRust has long compilation times because it doesn't prioritise compilation times. What does [0] have to do with the borrow checker?

- kzrdude 1y agoThe borrow checker is a very small factor in rust compile time
