shitty synthetic benchmark idea: how long it takes for a compiler to handle a main function with 1.2 million instances of printf("hello, world!

") or similar — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 2, 2019

fun fact, you need an AWS x1.16xlarge instance to compile 1.2 million lines of rust source code — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 2, 2019

oh god that might not be enough — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 2, 2019

oh god, is that what X1 is for???

TFW rust uses so much ram an x1.16xlarge can't compile hello world — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 2, 2019

Let's go x1e.32xlarge! — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 2, 2019

hello world — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 2, 2019

overheard: "im paying this computer minimum wage to compile this god damn rust program" — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 2, 2019

The guy who's paying for the instance in slack said it — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 2, 2019

Just a simple rust program, only 9.88090622052428380708467040696522138519972064500917... × 10^361235 possible conditions — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 2, 2019

Normal couples: watch tv together or something



me and my fiancé: watch someone try to compile a 1.2 million line of code rust function over slack — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 3, 2019

I guess #rust isn't production-ready, it can't compile hello world. — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 3, 2019

01:01 (Cadey) dalias: this is basically 1.2 million instances of `printf("hello, world!

");` in void main

01:01 (dalias) wtf — Cadey Ratio 🌐 (@theprincessxena) October 3, 2019
