The biggest and most pressing issue wrt compilation speed is the unfinished `--symbolFiles` feature. "symbolfiles" has become my term for "incremental compilation", its latest incarnation uses a database to store intermediate compilation fragments on a module granularity. Only modules that have changed since the last compilation should be recompiled. C++'s module feature is not gonna help us, since we got signature hashing most time is spent in the Nim frontend.
