I'm going to work on that today. The problem is a very simple one however: using a large ArrayList as if it were a Set simply does not perform well :) > A number of performance problems were fixed in ant 1.7.0, so > it would be nice to squash this one before ant 1.7.1. Fixing that problem in Union gave me performance comparable to 1.6.5, and fixing similar problems in DirectoryScanner gave a further improvement of almost 33% (from 15 seconds down to 10 seconds for a "null" build). -- [ I love pre-moistened towelettes ] Mike McNally -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
