The resulting size of the binary would effect load times slightly (as it has to load X MB's off disk), but you are most likely talking nano seconds here.
So, split them up, don't split them up - I can't see how it would make a difference at runtime (might be fractionally slower at compile time, but again - seconds or milliseconds over a 30 second + build time) On Fri, Jul 6, 2012 at 1:28 PM, Jason Awbrey <[email protected]> wrote: > all code is compiled into a single executable.
