llvm BE_NATIVE/without MLIR seems the best option for this kind of hardware.
I will test it right away and compare times.

Related to rust, it have an experimental option to build with port
llvm instead of bundled.
Have you test it?

Tomorow I will do this builds and share results.

Note: I did not change llvm default options in the past because I was
concerned about it affects testports.
But, I need to give it a go, because build times are impressive.

Thanks!
