    Mold: A Modern Linker 🦠

  • Mold is here and the README has instructions for how to set up Rust to use it.

  • sccache

    Sccache is a ccache-like tool. It is used as a compiler wrapper and avoids compilation when possible. Sccache has the capability to utilize caching in remote storage environments, including various cloud storage options, or alternatively, in local storage.

  • Don't forget to also set up sccache. (Note that, infrequently but not never, sccache has given me a build error where I needed to kill the sccache process and then re-run the failed cargo command. I'm not sure what causes it.)

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

    🚀 The blazing fast build tool for Rust. (by dimensionhq)

  • one simple way is to use fleet, they have collected most of optimizations possible for building.
