I have been trying to compile the examples using Visual Studio Community 2015

If I try to compile the 'step-1' example in Release mode, it finishes in just
a few seconds, but if i try to compile it in Debug mode it seems the linker
hangs and never ends.
Is the linking time supposed to be really long, even for such a simple
example? If not, has anyone faced this issue and came up with a solution?
Tulio -- it's certainly not the intention that it takes that long. We're not
Windows experts, so we may be doing something wrong. One thing that already
sticks out to me is that you seem to be linking against a static library,
rather than a .dll, right? I don't know how we determine to use one or the
other, but .dll libraries should be much faster.
The second part is that these libraries are *large*. Can you check how large
they are on your system? I suspect that the debug version is much larger
because of all of the debug symbols, so would expect things to take a long
time to link. But that's really the best I can offer from afar...
