It's quite obvious for #iOS developers that #Swift compiler is SLOW 😔

But how slow? I made a toy project that tries to (naively, I admit) compare compilation speed of a few compiled programming languages: C, C++, Go, #Rust and #Swift 🤓

@kkolakowski curious how the release and debug rust builds take essentially the same time. This doesn’t seem typical.

@ambihelical Agter more closer look it seems that Rust simply ignores all the unused code, which is super smart I would say. Optimize them out when linking is one thing, but not compile is another level.

I'll try to figure out something to avoid it...
