it seems because ARCHINCLUDES try to figure out the search path by
invoking shell script:
But wouldn't that affect all platforms proportionally? Why would
that cause such a huge increase on MSYS2.
I saw a 7 minute build time on Cygwin. That is also very high, but
not at all the kind of time increase that Johannes is seeing. I was
building on Cygwin at about 3 minutes at some time in the past, so
the build time has increases significantly for me too.
On Cygwin, I have always noticed that the build rate would slow down
when it got the to the drivers/ directory. It would slow by a factor
of 2-3X. This, we disccovered, as do to all of the include paths
that had to be searched. When you build the drivrs/, there can be
many include paths that really slows down the build.
Could something like that be happening here too?
I have seen a slow-down in builds under Linux as well. But since the
Linux builds are already so fast it is less evident. Before i was
building at around 20-30 seconds per build; now it is are 45-60
seconds per build.
Has anyone else seen this?
I should clarify... that is using testbuild.sh so it includes make
disclean and configure.sh times too. The actual build time is somewhat
less than that.
