I mentioned in the post several areas I myself haven't looked at, including cache misses. There may be room for improvements there.

There is an experimental parallel rustc front-end, e.g. see https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/help-test-parallel-rustc/1...

> any exploration of the idea of keeping track of information across builds so that incremental compilation is faster

That's exactly what incremental compilation does.

There's an effort to track which functions are modules & what the downstream implications of that are in terms of needing recompilation? Are there any links to technical descriptions? Super interested in reading up on the technical details involved.
