native compiled emacs!
Have you tried an alternative LSP implementation? Check out ycmd and see if it works faster for you.
-
Emacs for competitive programming
Try alternative LSP client, like YCMD. If even YCMD is too "heavy and bloated" there is built-in autocomplete in Emacs via semantic and tags.

rtags vs irony vs ycmd vs cquery (2021)
In my search for auto-completion packages, I came across rtags, irony, ycmd and cquery, I've seen comments about rtags and irony not being good for large projects (although rtags can handle larger projects than irony). I've also heard that rtags wouldn't work if there are many errors and that there were some problems when the irony server was up for long. I visited ycmd's repo, and it seems to now be unmaintained: abingham/emacs-ycmd: Emacs client for ycmd, the code completion system. (github.com)

Disable Racer and eldoc?
I recently have decided to switch to it full time, and I've encountered some annoyances while developing in Rust in it. The default rust setup uses eldoc combined with racer, which has been deprecated for a while now, for auto completion and stuff like that.

rust-analyzer changelog #113
On the server side, things are better, but RLS is still using racer for completions, which was never quite precise for me, and has a big disclaimer of "use rust-analyzer instead" in the README.
What are some alternatives?
