I use rust a lot but, Roc is right: compilation times are not proportional to the safety you gain. At least in my project.

I had an issue where the corporate spyware thought my cross compiler was potential malware and running scans on every file access. My compile times went from a few seconds to 2 minutes. And my codebase has a dozen targets. Where building, fixing, running tests, checking in would take half and hour it now took the whole afternoon.

I think I'd rather stick with C and run static analysis tools on my code when generating release candidates than have to deal with that.
