Little puzzle for you:

What belongs together?

Configurations:

 (A) current svn, --enable-pch
 (B) current svn, --disable-pch

Compile times/size of build tree part frontend/qt4:

 (1) real 7m35s  user 6m25s  sys 0m23s    58.5 MB
 (2) real 6m12s  user 5m12s  sys 0m19s    19.9 MB



Solution: (A)-(1), (B)-(2). This is gcc (GCC) 4.1.2.


Possible conclusions: Precompiled headers are a waste of time and space.
22% increase on compile times, ~300% increase on disk space.

Could somebody please try the same test with a different compiler?
