  • zig

    General-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

    • Zig's compiler isn't optimizing for linking speed over everything else though AFAIK. Also, Andrew says in the thread[0] that the linker doesn't (yet) address the types of complex scenarios that rui talks about.

  • posix-spawn

    Ruby process spawning library

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