At my last job we had a large Scala codebase and it compiles faster then our similarly sized C# project, and much faster then my current gig's much smaller Gradle based Java 8 project

I never looked at that way before. We were a shop that used scala and Ruby.

So many of us come from interpretted languages and are used to code and tests reloading with no downtime. How does scalac match up to C# and Java compilation? I'd be interested in seeing the numbers.

Thank you!
