I spent the last few months working on a register allocator which, when used with Cranelift, speeds up the Rust compiler by up to 18%. I've ...

Observing the steady stream of these posts that have continued more-or-less unabated since I joined three years ago, I would like to (re-)propose a retrocomputing tag.
