CppCon 2024

When your code base is growing, the time it takes to compile is also growing. But why, where is the compiler spending time? Lots of focus in C++ is on the performance of compiled code, but when you're compiling millions of lines of code, its important to pay attention to the build times. Neglecting this aspect can lead to significant losses in developer productivity.

In this talk, I will explore some capabilities built into Clang and Ninja that C++ developers can use to identify, understand, and mitigate long build times.
