Nicholas Nethercote has published a guide describing how to speed up the Rust compiler as of September 2026, continuing his long-running series of practical performance tips for contributors. The write-up walks through profiling and optimisation work that keeps rustc builds fast. Developers following Rust toolchain improvements are sharing the post as a useful on-ramp for contributing compiler performance patches.

RustChain, a blockchain built around the idea that old hardware should earn as much as new machines, selects its block producers with a simple modulo operation rather than proof-of-work hashing or proof-of-stake lotteries. Commenters note the design is deliberate: a hash-power race would let modern GPUs outpace a 2003 PowerBook, defeating the project's stated goal of hardware egalitarianism.
