  "account": "The article discusses a new tool called blaze that significantly accelerates Rust builds compared to the traditional cargo/rustc process. Blaze runs alongside cargo and keeps previously built projects in memory, compiling only the changed functions during an edit and integrating them into the already-built program. This results in a noticeable speed boost, with some benchmarks showing up to 92 times faster build times than cargo/rustc. Blaze is compatible with macOS on Apple silicon and Linux, and it requires Nix for installation on those platforms. The tool is still in development, and the article provides links to learn more, report issues, and contribute to its development.",
