A clang build was recently taken out of that process, though I haven't tried building since then.


It took me ~1 hour to compile on my MacBook Air.


Ouch. Did you run the build with multiple jobs? (Parallel builds have been a bit messed up because of fetching the bootstrap, but you can coax it into working.)


I just did ./configure && make && sudo make install.


I don't think I've actually tried that, except on my netbook (conclusion: don't try to build Rust on a netbook.) I have made a habit of typing supplying `-j 8` to make. Note: if it hasn't been fixed yet, you'll need to fetch the bootstrap compiler before that will work.


yup, me too.
