I am not so sure about this... I know nothing of dcc switches but he is comparing the compiler speed with a different set of features, it is easy to spot how flawed the comparison is: -O2 -Xg -Xs are all optimization flags and it is expected that optimizing code takes time. Could be interesting to see the speed and size of the binary produced by the two compilers, slower compilation time over faster or smaller code is something I would pick any time! > FPC Team: > Try to hear Martin otherwise, because he is a great developer with great > ideas. I am no fpc dev here, but patches are welcome I guess.
