Huh? That's not true at all. It took over 30 minutes to compile the self-hosted Rust compiler with the OCaml compiler, when rustc was far smaller than it is today. rustboot was agonizingly slow, and one of the main reasons why I was so anxious to switch to rustc back in those days was compilation speed. I was there and had to suffer through this more than virtually anyone else :) |
