"Incremental compilation is fast", is something people only talk about when normal compilation speeds are abysmal. Sadly, C++ set the expectations here, which m

But, when I watch somebody like Jon Blow, with his 1 second from scratch compilation the result seems to be that he just iterates a lot more without being significantly more productive than I am. I can imagine for some parts of video game design fast iteration might be crucial, yet I struggle to imagine that compilation speed is what matters there. Systems design, art direction, plotting, these don't seem like factors where you need those one second compile times.

I really want incremental compilation in 100ms or less, this makes live reloading (such as with dioxus subsecond [0]) so much more enjoyable. I don't care about the time spent on fully recompiling the whole project from scratch though.
