Mold: A Modern Linker
What about posix_spawn() with POSIX_SPAWN_USEVFORK? That saves some of the overhead. See eg https://github.com/rtomayko/posix-spawn#benchmarks

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.

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.
