FYI I merged a reduce-allocations branch to next for testing. It came from Milian here: https://github.com/steveire/CMake/pull/1 Milian also mentioned the possibility of using something like a sqlite database (probably what you meant by out-of-core above) for definitions for querying by the daemon. I also mentioned some possibile optimization possibilities, such as removing the closure of definitions created for all directories. I wrote a branch which does that some months ago, but it resulted in a slow down. I'll see if I can rebase the commit to master and push it to github, together with a patch for avoiding computing the hash multiple times in cmDefinitions.
