Hi,

I have a project that builds 88 different flavors - the cross product of 
these three variables:

Platform: x86 | x64
Configuration: Beta | Retail | Evaluation | Another Evaluation
Locale: cs, en-us, es-es, de-de, fr-fr, it-it, ja, ko, pl, zh-cn, zh-tw

A core exe (3MB) changes with both Platform and Configuration, and 
locale-related stuff changes with each local (50MB). The rest of the 
content of each installer is identical (70MB).

A merge module is built for each locale. A big wix project then is built 
to make each flavor. It takes 3-5 minutes each.

Would moving the shared contents from the core installer to a .wixlib or 
merge module make any difference in link times? It will take some effort 
to rearrange the code, and I don't want to bother if it will make no 
difference in the final build times. Do you have any things I should 
watch out for that could adversely affect performance?

Thanks in advance,
   - Brian
