Show HN: A C++ Compiler That Is Faster Than GCC and Clang

  Whereas this is very impressive, I feel “faster than” should be called out as “faster to compile than”. It’s generated code seems “on a par with”.

    Yes, agreed. "Faster to compile" can also be interpreted as the time to compile the compiler itself, so rather than try to disambiguate in the title, I just went with the short version.

    The breakdown is roughly:

    * Compiling a TU (Unoptimized): ~2.5x

    * Compiling a TU (Optimized): ~4x

    * Generated Code Speed (Unoptimized): ~1.01x

    * Generated Code Speed (Optimized): 0.99x
