How should I go about making Rust workflows go faster with CI's with GitHub Actions? Are there any cache actions for Rust or a place I could look for general optimizations?

  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.

  

If your CI mostly runs tests or builds, you can get a lot of mileage out of sccache, which I've been using successfully for about a year with S3: https://github.com/mozilla/sccache#s3 Just be aware that sccache does not cache proc macros, and does not help with running cargo clippy. It's far from optimal, but it is plug-and-play and because it compresses everything it uses impressively little cloud storage. I'm looking at 36 GB after a year of not cleaning.

  Discontinued 👁 A merge bot for GitHub Pull Requests

  

For projects using bors, CI time is the time to merge after the PR is approved. Plus, many developers use a PR workflow for even solo projects, and in that case you're reviewing your own PR, so you see it immediately and have already reviewed it.
