We switched to direct linking in stages. We first moved from 1.7 to 1.8 (which brought a direct-linked core). Then we enabled direct-linking for our entire code base. I don’t recall seeing any noticeable improvement with that first stage (it may have been a very minor improvement, I no longer recall – we had prerelease builds of 1.8 in production for months). When we enabled direct-linking for our entire code base, we did see a performance boost but it was of the order of a few percentage points. Enough to warrant keeping it that way (since there’s a tradeoff: you lose the ability to easily redefine code via an attached REPL etc). Initially we used direct-linking on all tiers (dev/ci/qa/prod) but we backed off on dev as it was interfering with our REPL-based workflow and it got in the way of a few of our tests that mocked functions.
