Apparently Bevy doesn't need that big tutorial on how to customise Rust toolchains for usable builds then.

Come on.

There's no “big tutorial” though. There's a section about compilation time performance[1] but it's arguably not “big”, and the most impactful parts of it is about linking time, not compilation time. And half of the section is now obsolete since rust uses `lld` by default.

Only if you happen to be on a platform where lld is supported.
Which platform does that description excludes?

Edit: oh I get it you probably meant “where lld is set as default ” which is currently Linux only.

Lld is supported by the other platforms though, so you can just copy-paste the three lines of configuration given on the Bevy page and call it a day.
