Fast compiles

LLD linker: The Rust compiler spends a lot of time in the "link" step. LLD is much faster at linking than the default Rust linker. To install LLD, find your OS below and run the given command:

Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install lld
Arch: sudo pacman -S lld
Windows: Ensure you have the latest cargo-binutils

cargo install -f cargo-binutils
rustup component add llvm-tools-preview

MacOS: Modern LLD does not yet support MacOS, but we can use zld instead: brew install michaeleisel/zld/zld

Nighly rust

Nightly Rust Compiler: This gives access to the latest performance improvements and "unstable" optimizations

• Install the nightly toolchain:
  rustup toolchain install nightly
• Configure your current project to use nightly (run this command within the project):
  rustup override set nightly
• OR configure cargo to use nightly for all projects -- switch back with rustup default stable:
  rustup default nightly

Starting

cargo run
# Start in release mod. witch drasticly improve performance
cargo run --release
