Hi Romain, Wow, thats an amazing response time! Thanks very much. those new byte compilation features must really really slow down the compilation. I left things running in excess of 90 minutes on a dual core 3.2GHz system with plenty of RAM and nothing else loading the system. I did think that maybe it was a change in byte code compilation slowing things down, but thought 90 minutes just for VM should be sufficient even in the slowest of compilation environments.
I'd like to also take this opportunity to thank you very much for the really great stuff you have done re: emacs-snapshot. The releases are so reliable and frequent I've totally given up direct CVS builds. I've been using the emacs-snapshot for ages now and problems have been extremely rare (and I'm someone who lives in emacs daily, both at work and at home). I for one very much appreciate the work you have been doing. I'm an emacspeak user, which is a very large and reasonably complex emacs package. I've not tried building it with the latest emacs-snapshot yet. It will be interesting to see what happens. The patch you have provided will give me the direction to see about patching things if its too slow. Very useful. thanks, Tim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
