> IvyDE does not seem to honor the setting of the environment variable
> IVY_HOME, nor does it allow you to configure where you want your Ivy Home to
> be. It should work like the Ant plugin does, and allow you to configure, at a
> workspace level, the location Ivy Home.
> This is important because for many users, the default
> C:\Users\<username\.ivy2 directory is not on a fast storage device (like an
> SSD), and things run *much* faster with the ivy cache running on an SSD or
> RAM drive. We are currently using linkd.exe to create an NTFS junction to the
> location where we want Ivy Home.
> This however, is also somewhat of a performance hit as going through an NTFS
> junction causes some overhead. We can tell, because with a command-line build
> with IVY_HOME set to an SSD, it completes 30 seconds faster than with the
> IVY_HOME unset buy going through the NTFS junction point (9:30 vs. 10:30).
