- I need to know if there is any way to speed up compile time on a DECstation
- 5000? The bottle neck seems to be the linking portion of the compile cycle,
- especially, if some of the libraries are coming off of NFS. If I have to
- compile an application that uses a couple large libraries, i.e. X, Xt, Xmu,
- etc..., it just ends up taking a ridiculously long time.
-
- My gripe from all of this stems from the fact that the same compile could
- take 10 times less time on a SUN which uses dynamic linking.
-
- Any ideas, other than moving my libraries around, would be greatly appreciated.
