Lightning Talk - 5 Things You Need to Know About Scala Compilation: #3 Will Blow Your Mind!
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
It’s not uncommon for a project to experience compilation times of a handful of minutes, if not worse. On top of that, compilation times are unpredictable, depending on a combination of language features, external libraries, and type annotations. A single line change may increase compilation times ten fold.
Don’t bow to the compiler and accept long compilation times! Rather, join this talk to learn how the compiler works and optimize your usage of Scala to compile faster!

Iulian Dragos
Iulian Dragoș dreams about a world where the Scala programming language is the default choice for new projects. He learned Scala by writing the compiler backend for it during his PhD at EPFL, back in 2004, and he was the first employee of Lightbend (formerly Typesafe). At Lightbend he helped the company grow from 5 to 85 employees, playing the role of engineer, technical lead, consultant, trainer or sales engineer. Iulian is a frequent speaker at conferences and actively contributing to several open-source projects.
