This email is related to one sent to the Go mailing list[1] about the great difference in compiling time between Rust which took 50 minutes, and Go with a time of 2 minutes in build compiler, all libraries, all commands and testing.
It looks that it is possible because it has been written in C, instead of use C++. It is also interesting to know that the Go compiler has been based in the Plan9 C compilers[2].
