Wild: A Blazing-Fast Linker for Linux
2025-01-24
Wild is a linker designed for speed in iterative development. While incremental linking isn't yet implemented, it's already impressively fast. For production builds, more mature linkers like GNU ld or LLD are recommended. However, for development, Wild significantly speeds up build times, especially on x86-64 Linux systems. It supports statically and dynamically linked executables and shared objects, and has been tested with many popular crates from crates.io. Currently under development are features like incremental linking, support for other architectures, and more linker flags.
