How much does the extra cache on Xeon help vs something like a 4 GHz i7? My desktop machine is five years old, but it's still faster than my MacBook Pro, so I've never bothered upgrading beyond newer SSDs. If there's a substantial improvement available in build times it would be easier to justify new hardware. A nop build on my desktop is 22s currently. Touching a cpp file (so re-linking xul) is 46s. A clobber build is something like 17 minutes. -r _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
