IMHO Makepad also has an exceptionally readable Rust code style, which is a very rare thing (maybe that simple Rust style even contributes to the good build times, dunno) - but also: from the pov of a C programmer, 200 kloc in 10..15 seconds is still quite bad ;)
How quickly can you verify the memory safety of that C program in addition to compiling it though? When comparing like to like, C no longer looks so fast.
