I use pre-release Emacs with the nativecomp branch ("gccemacs") and Doom. Starts in 2.1 seconds and it's blazing fast. Definitely the best thing to come to Emacs for me in a long time, very exciting.

I can't wait for it to hit release so everybody can play with it!

I have built gccemacs a week ago. I didn't see much difference in speed and it breaks wanderlust... Are there things to know to get the speed (and yes, I've checked it was enabled during ./configure :-)) ?

Any warts when using it with Doom? I only recently switched from vim to Doom, and I love it, but it can be a bit laggy when using it with some of the C/C++ IDE features turned on.

It works very well with Doom, Doom has support for it and detects it's available and does everything for you. Just compile Emacs and run doom upgrade as usual.

are binaries available somewhere, i tried compiling it about year ago but quit after struggling with few dependencies.
