> I don't really understand the self-flagellation in the Rust community about compile times.

I believe the two main factor are the fact that:

- many Rust users come from languages with a faster writing->running cycle (there is a surprising number of Python users starting to use Rust)

- Rust takes prides in its speed, if something is slow it is thus seen as a failure that should be fixed (even if it has perfectly reasonable reasons to be slow)
