Hi.

Another question. Are compiling on a local drive or on a network location? Do you have an antivirus running? If yes, it's set to check all files or only those loaded for execution?

Andreas.

In addition to Armeen's very important questions, I have additional ones:

What is "too long"... Can you please quantify this extremely loose and subjective term?

Can you describe in general terms how the objects are organized/grouped into the 70 libraries? Is there a schema or plan in place, does a developer place any object in any library he/she chooses, or something in between?

Has your app been developed with a framework of any kind? If so, which?

Do you use a dedicated "build" machine? Physical or virtual? What CPU and # of cores? How much physical memory? Does it use solid state drive(s) (SSD's)?

How critical is it that you lessen the build time? Are you willing to try non-free 3rd-party products to see if it would provide significant improvement?

How often are you required to perform a full build?

Are you willing to try reorganizing the objects or have you already tried to reorganize the objects differently to improve build and/or execution performance?

How long is it taking?

What is the filesize of the PBL?

Have you performed an "optimize" on the PBL?
