Back in September 2018 we asked for your help to better understand how much time is lost by Scala developers because of compilation, and with over 600 individuals filling up the survey we have some interesting data to discuss.

Coursera is the leading online educational platform, empowering more than 35 million learners across the world. Thanks to Hydra, Coursera gained 125 hours of development time otherwise lost to long compilation times every week, and countless more on their Continuous Integration infrastructure.

Triplequote partners with Lightbend to bring faster, multi-core Scala compilation to the enterprise.

We created a survey to understand how much time is lost in 2018 by Scala developers because of compilation. Your answers will help us at Triplequote get a better understanding of the problem. We deeply care about Scala developers productivity and it's our mission to make Scala compilation as fast as Java.
