Author here. How long do your dev builds take, and what is it that you are building? Curious what kind of improvement you get with split-debuginfo enabled!
This project is a very small hyper/tokio backend API. However, I also work on a CLI tool [1] I created which has very fast recompile times, usually less than a second. Mostly because it's pretty light on dependencies.
In C++ land I’ve experienced the gamut from multi-minute clean builds to 30 minutes to 1.5 hours on the latest & greatest CPUs, even with ccache. 14s sounds like paradise to me.
That’s usually clean builds. Incremental builds can be in the instant to 1-5 min depending on what line of code you change (deploy a new compiler and you’re probably rebuilding everything).
