I recently moved my 19MB project (about 400 classes, etc.) from 5.5.5 to 2007r1 and compilation takes about 10 times as long (36 seconds on 5.5.5 to nearly 6 minutes on versions I'm not allowed to talk about here). That's on a 1.67MHz Powerbook G4 with fast disk and 2GB RAM and a couple of Einhugur plugins. It takes far longer to open my project in 2007 than it does to open _and_ compile the entire thing on 5.5.5. I've taken to doing chores while I wait for a debug run. I'm seriously considering a faster computer, but I'm holding out for a MacBook Pro with the Santa Rosa chip set so that I can shove at least 4GB of RAM in there, since RB2007 is a truly horrible RAM hog.
