Hello,

As you know, Chromium is a huge project, only checking out the code
and compiling it is a very costly task.
Some time ago I was browsing the Code, compiled it and also made some
changes in order to patch some bug ( the one about drag & dropping a
items in Mac version )

Now I want to dive again into de code, but all my compiled code is
outdated, so i need to update the code and recompile the full tree
again.
I still remember that compiling the full source code took my macbook
around 2 hr and it replaced my calefactor for a while :).

The question is if there is any way to take only the code that you
want to work on and get the compiled libs of modules you don't want to
modify.

Say, i want to code in V8 module but i don't want to checkout the
webkit one and spend half and hour building the library and its
dependencies, or worse, recompile again the whole module when I sync
the code to update the changes has been made.

I would be perfect if you could have a precompiled version of
everything and only build the module you want to solve a bug. I think
than this approach would make the entry stages more affordable.

Thanks.
Roberto.
