Windows XP SP3 32-bit on a VirtualBox instance on FreeBSD, underlying filesystem is ZFS which does cause I/O slowdown, but not enough to explain this.
Can't remember what compiler I installed; there are Windows SDK 7 and Visual Studio 9 directories. SDK_PATH="/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft SDKs/Windows/v7.0" ./configure --with-frame-home="$SDK_PATH" --with-psdk-home="$SDK_PATH" --with-midl-path="$SDK_PATH/bin" --with-ant-home="/cygdrive/c/apache-ant-1.9.6" --with-dmake-url=" http://dmake.apache-extras.org.codespot.com/files/dmake-4.12.tar.bz2" --with-epm-url="http://www.msweet.org/files/project2/epm-3.7-source.tar.gz" --enable-pch --disable-atl --disable-activex --without-junit --with-cl-home="/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0/VC" --with-csc-path="/cygdrive/c/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v3.5" --with-jdk-home="/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Java/jdk1.7.0" --disable-directx --with-package-format="installed" --enable-wiki-publisher I am currently thinking we will gain more from porting to Java, than trying to maintain a build system for the buggy, leaky, complex, crash-prone, insecure languages that are C/C++.
