I have noticed with the new 2006r4 on my Mac, the compiled application size of PEF have grown to be very close to the Mach-O builds. And it's no doubt purely me, since I have done no testing at all to qualify it, but my Mach-O builds with R4 seem "peppier" than the PEF builds. Especially at launch. On the other hand watching R4 compiling and running the application from the IDE moves at roughly the same speed as the last ice age.
