> Zig's compilation times are already terrific

In my experience, this (for now) is mostly aspirational. It's obviously a major goal, and there are clear milestones outlined on how to achieve it, but in practice the initial compile of an empty project or the excruciating pause when you `direnv allow` and ZLS needs to be (re)built are not what I'd describe as "terrific".

>(re)built are not what I'd describe as "terrific".

It sounds like you are a strong candidate to try out the new improvements mentioned in this devlog and see what benefits you can get for yourself.

Maybe you're right, but how many other system programming languages toolchains give you sub 50ms recompilations across millions of LoC?

I foresee a pjmlp comment in your near future. :)
