Just googling “f# compile times” would beg to differ.

Apparently you didn't bother to read the 3 answers that come up.

Only one of them says anything and it an empty statement like

> F#'s compile times also seem to err on the long side but not very much so, my impression goes.

However it is quite easy to validate write the same algorithm in F# and Rust and then compare.

Ah but Rust is AOT compiled, easy, use NGEN, .NET Native, or Mono AOT for the F# compile time measurements.

Apparently you assume that everyone’s google results are identical.

I've had a reviewer in a (scientific) journal tell me some paper is relevant, and thus I need to cite it, because it "appears on their top google results".

People should be educated on the huge bias introduced by personalized services like google.

If that’s the case, then there’s no point in making any claims about what “just googling ‘f# compile times’ ” will reveal.
