alt Hacker NewsI don't really consider it to be slow at all. It seems about as performant as any other language this complexity, and it's far faster than the 15 minute C++ and Scala build times I'd place in the same category.

The memory usage is quite large compared to C/C++ when compiling. I use Virtual Machines for Demos on my YouTube Channel and compiling something large in Rust requires 8GB+.
In C/C++ I don't even have to worry about it.

When C++ templates are turing complete is it pointless to complain about the compile times without considering the actual code :)
I also don’t understand this, the rust compiler hardly bothers me at all when I’m working. I feel like this is due to how bad it was early on and people just sticking to that narrative
