MinGW MSYS Slow -- How to make faster? -
mingw still slow year after question posted, , i've tried fix there's no difference. someone else apparently has same problem too, no fix.
i'm trying compile gcc , each object file taking several seconds. (this varies wildly; it's 1 second, it's 30.) (in case, though, it's not computer; it's fine other compilers.) know why it's slow, , if there options can set improve compile time?
thanks!
well, msys , cygwin have slow design, or in other words hard make faster. there continuous string processing of every command passed bash shell, posix shared memory pool manually manage etc...
if want build gcc on windows, suggest installing free vm software, virtualbox, install lightweight distro, , cross-compile windows toolchain. windows, use other build system autocrap (cmake, qt's qmake, ...) , speed should not issue anymore. might sound lot of hassle , complete opposite of minimal system, heck, works sooo better, , faster.
