# 2024-05-21 Triage Log
Fairly quiet week with the exception of a very large improvement coming from the switch to `rust-lld` on nightly Linux. This can have very large impacts on benchmarks where linking dominates the build time (e.g., `ripgrep`, `exa`, small binaries like `hello-world`). Aside from that change, there were a few small regressions that were either deemed worth it or are still being investigated.
Triage done by **@rylev**.

- It seems the primary benchmark affected by this html5ever seems to spend lots of time in expand_crate which could be impacted by this change.
- Asked authors and reviewer whether this is worth an investigation or not.

- Somewhat further fall out from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/124684. This adds additional output which will slow down benchmarks which emit this warning particularly often.
- We're likely ok with this given this is the "unhappy path".
