Hi,
I hadn't built Geany for a while, I found the MSYS2 build instructions with
autotools. Libtool seems incredibly slow - mainly for linking but even
compiling is slow. I've tried disabling AV to no effect. Are there any
simple workarounds? The modify-rebuild cycle is painful now.
Long time no hear.  I can't help with Windows build speeds but can say
that the Linux build does not appear to be significantly slower
AFAICT.
No.  By default libtool might build object files twice, one static and
one shared, just in case it might need both, but I disabled it ages ago
as we don't need both
(https://github.com/geany/geany/commit/723f4302e0d7bbd938c789b9730366f7c7e03080).
  Maybe check if libtool on Windows doesn't enforce something stupid like
that.

But it might also be that MSYS2 is slow or something, but that Thomas
might know more about.

From my experience (it's been some time) shell scripts (i.e. configure) is horribly slow (disabling AV helps a lot but it's still bad), the compilation itself shouldn't be significantly slower than on Linux.

Can you compare a against Linux builds and post some numbers? Also, what kind of system is this?

Best regards
