The use of the multiple targeted build scripts (unittests, app, or all) makes sense.
My question then would be, is the speed of compilation a main factor in the choice of compilation methods? It sounds like there are other factors that depend on the development teams practices that weigh in the to decision then just speed of compilation. In regards to just the factor of speed, on an application with roughly 50 .mxml and 50+ .as files whats the typical compile times? 20s-30s?
