In fact, in my experience, Rust has faster time to delivery than any other language I've used. It takes forever to compile, but I have so many fewer runtime bugs that have to be caught (hopefully) by testing, that it still comes out ahead, overall (again, for me and my various projects).
I also find write-time to not be as slow as others complain about, except when it comes to async/futures where it is, indeed, pretty rough. But, if I sit and think about how many times I have to flip back and forth between my code and some library code to try and guess what exceptions it may or may not throw in other languages or whether something could be null or not, I find that the dev times aren't so much better in these other languages as people sometimes claim.
Sure, if you're a fulltime JavaScript dev with 10 years of experience, you might remember things like that calling the Array constructor with 0 or >1 arguments creates an array with those values, but if you call it with exactly 1 number, it will create an empty array with that capacity. But, since I have to switch between many languages regularly, my time to delivery is significantly reduced by nonsense like that. Likewise, it's reduced by NPEs in Java, double-frees in C++, Kotlin's inane idea to use exceptions for errors and coroutine control-flow, etc, etc.
The fact that my only complaint is that compile times are slower than I'd like should be seen as high praise.
Rust makes the problems easier to fix, IMHO. So, maybe even with same (or slightly longer) compile times, you'll hopefully have faster time to delivery.
