I've abandoned zig for rust. I expected to be annoyed by rust build times, but so far it's been quite good for my needs. To the contrary it has not been any impediment even when prost etc all drag in many deps from a cold build.

The zig compiler apart from a couple of cross build or linker issues is darn good. Switch to rust is a function of library support, private struct fields. Rust itself is better organized and far better documented compared to zig.

However, rust has got to get their allocators for container support straightened out soon. I do SAAS for fintech and low level packet transports. Both benefit greatly with allocators custom designed for job at hand.

45 mins strikes me as something else is amiss ...
