  • C++ vs. Rust Build Times

    > They seem to have chosen to use mold for C++ and not for Rust after seeing that it gave little benefit for small projects, but I would expect that to change as the project scales.

    The benchmarks show Mold for both Rust and C++. This wasn't explicitly stated in the article; sorry. https://github.com/quick-lint/cpp-vs-rust/blob/f8d31341f5cac...

  • Is coding in Rust as bad as in C++? A practical comparison
    15 projects | /r/rust | 5 Jan 2023
    Very well-researched article (in my uninformed opinion because I've done virtually no benchmarking). I'd summarize it as, Rust doesn't significantly improve build times over C++ for a project where you need to frequently recompile to test the logic of the code. I gather that the Rust code is pretty idiosyncratic (using raw pointers rather than slices and custom owned and borrowed string containers with i32 length and capacity fields), but I don't know why more idiomatic Rust code would be faster to compile, and it could be very different, so a worse comparison. The results aren't relevant for me because I use Rust mainly for the language features and don't have a project with terrible compile times or the need to often rerun tests, but there might be other C++ projects in the same boat as quick-lint-js that would consider moving to Rust if it compiled faster than C++. Hopefully the efforts of people like u/nnethercote will make that happen.
