Yes, I would like to spend time in the next release cycle working on compiler performance. To start with, I have a patch that improves performance of translation by 15%.
brson and I have been discussing using stage0 LLVM for subsequent stages, so that LLVM itself won't have to be compiled. This should reduce the amount of time required to compile Rust by a lot.
