I realise I was trying it with a release build (much smaller). It's about six seconds with a debug build. Does your machine have a hard drive? HD vs SSD probably makes more difference to link time than anything else does. 30 seconds is definitely worth trying to improve upon, and realistically using shared libraries is the only thing that would make much of a dent in that, although I guess you'd only save much time overall if you don't have to re-link multiple shared library objects as well (i.e. if you're rebuilding after a change that is local to only one of them). The exception would be if you don't have enough memory to do a full link in RAM (probably 2GB is about what's needed to be sure of that with debug RG) when shared libraries should always help. I dread to think what the dependency graph between different RG subdirectories looks like.
