Is there any way to speed this up? In general the Windows filesystem is not good at dealing with large numbers of small files...exactly what happens during a build. We've regularly seen 10x speed differences in your situation. > It's particularly slow on built C++ targets. It can take between > 2-5 seconds before it moves to the next target. Does this happen every time if you do it more than once in a row (cold v. warm cache)? > cmake280rc5 on the same hardware smokes the paints off of nmake "Built > target" messages. Do you mean that rc5 on Linux beats rc5 on Windows? > Linux: 5 seconds to show all built targets > Windows: 61 seconds to show all built targets. Look for depend.internal files in the build tree. These files list all the dependencies for each object file. How many deps per object do you see? Also, try set VERBOSE=1 nmake to see if CMake prints any verbose dependency check info. IIRC it only prints something when it decides a file is out of date, but it won't hurt to try. -Brad _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
