Improve build times for a medium-sized team working on one project?
- I looked at https://github.com/paritytech/cachepot as the sccache successor fork and it seemed interesting but I got `sccache` working before I actually tried.

Mold Linker v1.9.0 release
Well sold has a few extra features, namely macOS support, so I assume if you're a developer on a MacBook, and you want to link faster, you'd need to use sold. Although to be honest, I didn't see much difference between soldon macOS and zld.

Any tips to improve the build time Rust under MacM1::Docker?
Have you tried zld (https://github.com/michaeleisel/zld) for linking?

Best central processing unit for compiling Rust in 2022
The default linker is single-threaded so, unless you're on a platform where you can use a fancier multi-threaded linker like mold or zld, single-core performance will dominate for the final linking step.

Improve build times for a medium-sized team working on one project?
- If it's not a release build that needs to be verified-good, consider using `mold` to link your builds and test binaries: https://github.com/rui314/mold --- it is much faster than lld or gold. For mac users there is https://github.com/michaeleisel/zld but mostly if you care about build times you need to get off macOS somehow.

Mold: A Modern Linker
as an alternative linker for Rust as an example:
https://github.com/michaeleisel/zld#if-using-rust
What are some alternatives?
When comparing cachepot and zld you can also consider the following projects:
cacache-rs - A high-performance, concurrent, content-addressable disk cache, with support for both sync and async APIs. 💩💵 but for your 🦀
mold - Mold: A Modern Linker ðŸ¦
cached - Rust cache structures and easy function memoization
