I'd like to voice my disagreement with the author about C having the shortest compile times. From my own experience and reports all over the Web, it seems that Go handily beats C at compilation speed.

This is mostly down to a lot of design decisions in Go made with the goal of speeding up compilation. Elimination of header files, pre-compilation of Go modules, efficiently parseable syntax and more.

From what I've seen, first-time compilation of Go programs competes well with C, while incremental compiles are practically instantaneous.
