>>>>>>> I am an iOS developer and the largest issue my team has with Swift so far is that when the project gets semi large (~30 000 lines) the compilation times start to be high (~10 minutes from clean). This is a MAJOR downside since iOS development oftentimes requires rapid changes to UI or logic. Every person of my team compiles a project at least 10 times a day to test new features or functionalities. When compilation times start to be higher than 10 minutes that gets us to ~1.5h a day of developer time spend just on compiling. Not to mention the focus lost when this is happening.<br class="gmail_msg">

>>>>>> Often a large part of the build time is spent in a handful of places where the compiler's type inference system behaves poorly. You can use the -debug-time-function-bodies and -debug-time-expression-type-checking flags to look for these places. You can often get huge decreases in compile time by adding an explicit type declaration in the right place in order to simplify the type inference engine's job.<br class="gmail_msg">
