> Your practice deviates significantly from what other people are doing in the ecosystem

Yeah, I know, that's what I said in the last paragraph! (: And that's also why I enjoy a 2 second recompile times (I could probably go even lower with some more refactoring) in release mode (debug mode is too slow for me at runtime) for a medium sized project while other people are struggling with half a minute compile times on projects less than half of mine's size.

I'm not saying that what I wrote is the ultimate panacea, but it's certainly one way of tackling the problem of compile times and executable bloat, and it'd certainly be nice for more crates in the ecosystem to take this issue more seriously. (You can only do so much by making the compiler faster.)
