...While many independent, hobby, and research OSes aim to experiment with new designs, ToaruOS is intended as an educational resource, providing a representative microcosm of functionality found in major desktop operating systems. The OS includes a kernel, bootloader, dynamic shared object linker, C standard library, its own composited windowing system, a dynamic bytecode-compiled programming language, advanced code editor, and dozens of other utilities and example applications. There are no external runtime dependencies and all required source code, totaling roughly 100k lines of (primarily) C, is included in this repository, save for Kuroko, which lives separately. ...

For large projects, the linking phase (explanation) can significantly increase incremental build times. This project is a fork of the Apple linker, ld. It is a drop-in replacement that can substantially speed things up. It all depends on your risk tolerance and how much you value the speedup in incremental build time. When linking takes more than one second, I'd cut that time in half as the estimated time with this new linker. If that difference is compelling to you, then it'd be worth...
