yes, the newish build model is modular, allowing to only compile what needs to.
Still not perfect but a huge improvement.

Just as before, give enough ram to AS. Generally if it is slow it is because it is constantly trashing the memory.
- mikestew 9y agoTrashing memory, or thrashing? Because with AS, I’ll believe either.
- on_and_off 9y agothrashing, english is not my first language ^^ Hmm; I have been running extremely large projects on AS with a good but not out of this world machine. Compilation times are too slow for my taste (ie even clean should take less than 5 seconds ideally), but the IDE itself is pretty smooth. Again, the trick is to monitor its memory usage. It is a pity that it's up to the user to configure this, but for large projects I had to allocate more memory to AS and it makes it go from unusable to lag free.
- mikestew 9y agothrashing, english is not my first language ^^ No, no, your English is fine, it's AS that's the problem. :-) I assumed that it was probably a typo of some sort, but I would truly have believed either usage. Though AS has gotten better about not trashing memory. That said, I agree that with a properly provisioned machine, AS does well. And it's a vast improvement over its predecessor.
