DWARF compression accounts for roughly 30% of the linker's time. This CL switches from DefaultCompression to BestSpeed, which virtually eliminates this time. This roughly halves the overhead of handling DWARF in the linker: name \ time/op nodwarf dwarf dwarf-speed BuildCmdGoAll 10.0s ±11% 10.6s ± 5% 10.8s ± 5% nodwarf +6.41% +8.03% dwarf ~ LinkCmdGo 626ms ± 5% 1096ms ± 2% 860ms ± 2% nodwarf +75.17% +37.36% dwarf -21.59% Previously, enabling DWARF had a 75% overhead in link time for cmd/go. This change reduces this overhead to 37% (a 22% reduction). The effect on binary size is minimal compared to DefaultCompression, and still substantially better than no compression: cmd/go bytes nodwarf 10106953 dwarf 12159049 nodwarf+20% dwarf-speed 12408905 nodwarf+23% dwarf-nozlib 17766473 nodwarf+76% Updates #26318.
