Comment on waiting for rust-analyzer
Zalack@startrek.website 1 year agoCompiled Rust is fast.
Compiling Rust is slow.
Also my understanding is that RustAnalyzer has to compile all Rust macros so it can check them properly. That’s not something that a lot of static analysis tools do for things like C++ templates

This is, in part, a correlation. To some extent, compiled Rust is fast because compiling Rust is slow. That is, Rust does a lot of work (static analysis) at compile time so that the runtime binary is as fast as possible.
