Slow incremental compile times after small code changes
8/10 HighDevelopers report that incremental rebuilds after making minor source code changes take significantly longer than expected. Workspace rebuilds trigger full dependent crate recompilation (not incremental across boundaries), and the linking phase always runs from scratch without caching, creating major productivity bottlenecks.

if you change a header file that's used in a lot of places or is very crucial to your application then you basically need to recompile your horr application... if you use templates you need to Define everything in the header files and so this is really slows down development
waiting too long for incremental rebuild after making a small source code change was by far the most common complaint... workspace rebuilds trigger full dependent crate recompilation (not incremental across boundaries), the linking phase always runs 'from scratch' without caching, and the incremental engine isn't optimally cached across all compilation stages.
