So, yes, you pay more for the compile, but that is compensated many times over at execution time. I have to recommend you do use optimization and that you carefully study the different compile options that drive optimization (OPT, TUNE, ARCH, ...). There is a lot (an I mean A LOT) of CPU consumption to be saved at execution time. > 2 seconds to 23-31 minutes is insane. > Yes, but I think that is because of paging kicking in, I guess. Is there not more physical storage available so as to avoid paging?
