Pretty impressive numbers, although it’s fair to say here that while Go comes with its own build toolset, pretty much no one uses plain javac to compile stuff. It’s almost always either Gradle or Maven and as the article hints they slow down builds a lot.

> From this study we can see the paradox: the Java compiler is blazing fast, while Java build tools are dreadfully slow. Something that should compile in a fraction of a second using a warm javac takes several seconds (15-16x longer) to compile using Maven or Gradle.
