#build-times
Jussi Pakkanen (creator of Meson) rewrote a subset of the C++ standard library from scratch, dropping ISO conformance to chase compile speed. Converting his real CapyPDF library to it cut compile time ~80% and binary size ~75%, and made the program ~25% faster, with no runtime penalty for the faster build.
