compiling geometry nodes
It would be cool if we could compile node groups, which should hopefully run a lot faster. However Im not a dev so I dont know how hard this would be to implement, but the UI/functionality I think would be simple as just having a compile button on any nodegroup. If you make a change it'll go back to running as usual, so you'll have to compile it again.

What would compiling do though? Besides maybe some speed improvements, there's no benefit, in my opinion..
yes it would speed it up, which is a benefit. I believe it might be quite an immense speed improvement, especially if the compiler is good.
also Houdini has a similair function called compiled blocks, in which if you place node networks inside then it treats the block as one compiled node. However I find that not really homogeneous with blenders style, so it would make sense to be similiar to baking: a directory to where it'll be saved and a button to compile.
