Dear list,

*Please* just put cold comparison data in this thread. No discussion
and debates. (Open another thread if needed).

On my dual processor Xeon 2.8G Linux workstation, I get

scons --config=force -j3 frontend=qt4 qt_dir=/path/to/qt4       => 6:37s
autogen.sh; ./configure....; make -j3 => 10:32s

I expect larger difference under windows, but we need to wait for the
numbers there.

Windows/mingw/qt4

scons frontend=qt4 qt_dir=d:/program/Qt/4.1 extra_inc_path=d:/mingw/include extra_lib_path=d:/mingw/lib

clean compile lyx+tex2lyx =    45 minutes

null compile =            4 minutes
    Loading qt4 tool...         45 seconds
    scons: Building targets ...    3 minutes

Windows/cygwin/mingw/qt4
autogen.sh    2 minutes
configure    6 minutes

Hum this was with cached tests. On a clean state, configure takes 12 minutes here. And, by the way, my machine is a pentium 4 mobile 1.8GHz and 768Mo RAM. I guess that now that you can compare your few minutes on linux with my few hours on windows you can understand that it is good to do something about that build system.

Abdel.
