No, it's pre-compiling all the REALbasic source code which is

way to object code, but stopping short of linking (which is why
you still get only the plugins you actually use in your built app).
Why didn't RB 5.5 have to perform this step?
The whole system of connecting to plugins and framework code was
quite different in 5.5, as could be observed by the fact that
plugin/framework methods were not virtual as they are now.
The big hit when pre-compiling was due to the MBS plugins.
It's a plugin with 146 sub-plugins.

If it's worth doing, then it's worth doing with excess.
