Anyone thinks it is worth it?
By increasing build time by minutes, are you talking about per book
or per
full build?
full builds. It is over 500% increase :|
That's not _too_ bad, and perhaps over time we'd find a few
optimizations. Okay, 500% is bad.
I don't think it's worth implementing yet but would love to see a
wiki entry
detailing all of this so that the work is not lost. And if we do
decide to
move translations towards gettext (po files) it would likely be a
good time
to revisit this topic.
Its not the translations fault, they are dealt with by using catalogs.
Its the redefinition of all the entities ~200 times (each ext) that is
killing it I think.
But since it requires editing most every XML file (thus outdating
every translation) it would make for a good time to do it. Along with
our move to SVN or GIT. Ugh.
