We tried scons on all three platforms, but it just wasn't a good fit. First off, it uses huge amounts of RAM and is very slow. (This has not changed in five years.) Second, the mac and linux developers really wanted to use xcode and visual studio to do builds. So we moved to gyp. The guy who wrote it is also the guy who wrote scons :-) so he used scons as the target on Linux until we have a chance to write a make backend for gyp. (One's written, but not fully debugged yet.) > I was using scons before I tried waf, and haven't gone > back.
