  Compilation Performance
  
    Small files (<100 lines): <1 second
    Medium projects (1K-10K lines): 5-30 seconds
    Large projects (100K+ lines): 30-300 seconds with incremental compilation
Love that there's an upper limit on compilation time. No matter how large your project gets, it will never take more than five minutes to compile (incrementally).

Also it’s not possible to write programs that have between 100 and 1000 lines.
