What Hacker News says?

  1. Funny he didn't mention a command line tool that gives compile time per function ( explained here http://irace.me/swift-profiling ). That proved to be the greatest help in my case to reduce compile times drastically. He did mention running a tool to add explicit types everywhere, but it's very often a matter of just writing the most generic ones. Maybe not in uber case, but for everybody else you should try it.
