There was a problem hiding this comment.
Curious why we would skip for noDefaultLib. Is this to support just test harnesses or actual user code? 🌹

This PR adds a new
--skipLibCheckcompiler option that causes type checking of declaration files (files with extension.d.ts) to be skipped. When a program includes large declaration files, the compiler spends a lot of time type checking declarations that are already known to not contain errors, and compile times may be significantly shortened by skipping declaration file type checks.Since declarations in one file can affect type checking in other files, some errors may not be detected when
--skipLibCheckis specified. For example, if a non-declaration file augments a type declared in a declaration file, errors may result that are only reported when the declaration file is checked. However, in practice such situations are rare.Fixes #8521. Compile times for the example given in this issue are reduced 5x.
