How long should it take to build a standalone (RR2.1.2) ?
The first ones I did some time back were done in a few seconds.
For this project, it takes about 4 minutes each when it is on

I had this happen to me as well. What I ended up doing was to burn separate
CDs... not much of a consolation, but the only way I could get the product
out the door. The other approach is to use visible folders, but just hide
your files by changing their names/icons/locations so that they aren't
I suspect the reason for the delays is that in the old version, you
were not having Rev slim down the standalone by removing unneeded
stuff. And perhaps not using any profiles, either. These steps can take
time (I'm not sure if 4 minutes is appropriate; depends on lots of
variables).
