Tried this on the CI setup of my Github repository but it doesn't seem to improve the compilation speed.

Does this action create a config.toml pointing to this linker by default? If not it would be useful if it did for Rust repositories!

rui314 commented 2 years ago

It replaces the linker at the default path (/usr/bin/ld), so the effect should be global.

What is your program? Can I see your GitHub Actions logs?

After re-examination, I realized this action did actually work. Turns out this is an invalid issue and I apologize for that.

My project compiles modules from a game engine (Bevy ECS).

Without setup-mold: https://github.com/starwolves/space/runs/6083707375?check_suite_focus=true

With setup-mold: https://github.com/starwolves/space/runs/6083253856?check_suite_focus=true

There is a clear two-minute gain in compilation time!!!

Nice! Glad to hear that mold worked for you.
