The documentation usually takes longer than all the rest. If you're used to 30 minutes for the C and Scheme code, late at night with nothing else running, I'm not too surprised to see 2-3 hours including the Scribble code, during the day while I have other applications running. (I'm not sure how much the other applications matter, given it's a dual core machine and mzscheme runs on only one core, but Scribble is easily the bulk of the build time.) --Carl _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://list.cs.brown.edu/mailman/listinfo/plt-dev
