alt Hacker NewsAre there any other languages that offer similar compilation performance. The only one I know of or remember is Turbo Pascal.

Isn’t go (with cgo disabled) still at least as fast to compile?

Delphi, D, Nim, Go, C# / .NET Native / Native AOT, Oberon (any on the language family), Ada (depends on the compiler, 7 vendors),...

Compilation speed isn’t that much of a factor of language as far as I can understand. It is more related to how optimization is done and how machine code is generated.
Also obviously it is about how fast the actual implementation of the compiler/build-system is.

Everyone forgets D. It’s probably the fastest to compile, even faster than Go
