------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Mar 25 09:48:27 +0000 2008 ------- The time it takes to construct an installer by the make_installer.pl script seems to have a very non-linear dependency on the number of languages. The culprit seems to be the function get_children in the file solenv/bin/modules/installer/packagelist.pm. I added some instrumentation to simply count the number of times this function gets called, and compared this to the number of languages in addition to en-US in the installer being built: 1 734 2 1863 3 3854 4 7055 5 11886 8 41439 (Plot it in calc...) We used to build OOo with a multi-lingual installer with 50 languages. Clearly with this behaviour this is not possible. I lost patience when the perl process had consumed some ten hours of CPU... (With 2.3.0 the *whole* build took some six hours (using lots of parallel CPUs for the actual build phase), and the instsetoo_native part maybe just some tens of minutes.) Does anybody have a clue how to correct this problem? At a first glance, it seems to me that it should be possible to simplify how get_children works by a preprocessing step that constructs the set of children for each module just once in advance, but what do I know... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
