Another nice thing is that, if you can live with the slower musl malloc, then building a "universal" Linux binary with Cargo takes just two commands:

$ rustup target add x86_64-unknown-linux-musl

$ cargo build --target x86_64-unknown-linux-musl --release

Similarly for cross-compiling for Windows

It may be fixed now, but devil's in the details. As one example, musl has (or had) chronic issues with it's dns resolver and large responses.

Definitely. I haven't tried building anything that requires DNS using musl, but I've had to work around musl's much, much slower malloc implementation

The musl wiki lists a number of differences between it and glibc that can have an impact:

I should try that!
