How is it faster? You mean every program runs faster or what?

No, just bootup and general responsivness of the system. Software is still compiled by the ssme compilers used in other distros. Everything is not magically faster.

Though on the musl build, yeah, it is faster. Trouble is, you can't run glibc software on it. Through chroot, yeah, but natively, no.

  • The package manager is extremely fast
  • The lack of systemd reduces startup time
  • The musl libc marginally speeds up programs
