The current mold / lld linkers can be significantly faster than bfd. If the developer does not need linker scripts or other BFD-specific functionality, they can use these linkers for the typical development process. It would be helpful to save a few milliseconds if lld was also usable with mingw. (Mold is not available for this purpose under an open-source license.)

There is an upstream project https://github.com/mstorsjo/llvm-mingw which mentions some limitations.

Is anyone able to tell if it is worth experimenting with it or possibly adding it to Fedora?
