Instead of emitting one giant crate containing everything, we tweaked our SQL-to-Rust compiler to split the output into many smaller crates. Each one encapsulating just a portion of the logic, neatly depending on each other, with a single top-level main crate pulling them all in.
Cool and all. But missing some experiments:
lto = "off"strip = false(for good measure)A man of culture.
I am still quite ignorant of the workings of rust/rustc (I’ll learn it tomorrow, I swear!) but I’m surprised that multi threaded compilation isn’t available by default. make/gcc have had it for several decades
makeuses multiple processes for parallelism, or what the blog post (below) calls “interprocess parallelism”. cargo/rustc has that and intraprocess parallelism for code generation (the backend) already. the plan is to have parallelism all the way starting from the frontend.
