2.95.x has always been much faster for both C and C++ when compared to 3.x. At least on Linux, 3.4.0 prerelease was around 10% faster to compile the 2.6.5-mm2 kernel when compared to 3.3.3: 2.6.5-mm2 --------- real 473.96 user 413.13 sys 33.94 (GCC 3.4.0) real 524.27 user 476.70 sys 40.53 real 372.73 user 336.88 sys 30.90 (GCC 2.95.4) Anyway, does anybody know if GCC in Cygwin is compiled with --disable-checking ? gcc -v didn't return it, so it doesn't look like. It seems using it causes compilation times to decrease a lot. -- http://www.pervalidus.net/contact.html -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
