My windows build is very slow, and it spends the first few minutes
compiling test_xxx.obj files.
Is it possible to build the HotSpot VM .obj files first?
This is on my long list of "nice to have" enhancement:
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8217726
I actually started trying to fix it a few months ago, but ran into some
unexpected snags. I honestly do not remember what the problems were
right now. The work, as far as I got, is available here:
https://github.com/magicus/jdk/tree/move-gtest-to-test
Unfortunately this will cause a slight performance penalty when building
the entire image from scratch (like in our CI systems) due to missed
opportunities of parallelisation (and because make is stupid enough to
not utilize the fact that the hotspot dll is done earlier), but it will
make pure "make hotspot" builds much faster.
If anyone feels like continuing the work, it's all up for grabs.
Otherwise I'll get around to it when I get around to it... :-(
