Which branch is this? This works fine on master for me. `mma` should work, but running `m -j out/target/common/obj/JAVA_ LIBRARIES/metrics-helper-lib_intermediates/link_type` once should fix this particular error (there may be more behind this though).
I wouldn't expect `mma` to take 10x as long if you're compiling the same things -- with nothing to compile (ran them twice), `mm` takes 6 seconds on my machine, while `mma` takes 9 seconds. `mm` will take less time if you've touched a makefile, but `mma` will share those results with a regular `m` build, so you're reading makefiles less often. All of those times are still longer than we'd like (especially since `mm` used to be faster), but many of the improvements I'm looking at would improve both `mm` and `mma`, so as the speeds improve, `mm` may just become an alias of `mma` so that we don't run into inconsistencies like this. It's also possible that your `mma` times are significantly longer than mine -- a bit over half of my time increase came from ninja loading, which gets longer with a larger build graph, but can't really go too crazy. The other significant section is determining whether to re-read the Android.mk files, and if any Android.mk files you've added are making use of the $(shell) command, those can significantly affect these times. That's responsible for a full second of the 3 second increase, and any extra $(shell) users will linearly add their runtime to that -- it's easy to add another few seconds accidentally.
