When does this land in Zig? Will aarch64 be supported?

When targeting x86_64, the self-hosted backend is already enabled by default on the latest builds of Zig (when compiling in Debug mode). The self-hosted aarch64 backend currently isn't generally usable (so we still default to LLVM when targeting aarch64), but it's likely to be the next ISA we focus on codegen for.

I assume x86_64 is Linux only correct?

Not quite- any ELF or MachO target is enabled by default already. Windows is waiting on some COFF linker bug fixes.

I was comparing end-to-end builds. I pay more attention to build times than someone who doesn't do it for a living typically does.

Anyhoodle, I'm looking forward to testing the compile times again when Zig says the build times are fast now.

But if we're talking about incrementality, I look forward to testing that too when it's ready. I've got a Bazel build for work that pulls together Rust along with a custom (very slow) compiler and the cached successful pipelines take 2-3 minutes (mostly the benchmark run) and the ones that churned the non-rust take 15-18 minutes, of which about 10-11 minutes is just compiling the non-rust.
