I've had C++ job where regular build took 30 minutes and full rebuild over 1 hour. And it wasn't even a very big project. We moved the code to Java and the compile time there was under 10 minutes WITH tests (C++ version had none). Without tests it was less than a minute. It's not a perfectly fair comparison (we changed some things and not everything was moved to Java), but still.
- gpderetta 5y agoI have worked on C++ projects where the regular build was an overnight job. Fortunately these days I work on more saner projects which use distributed builds and a properly parallelized makefile and a full build is just a 2-3 minutes. Incremental builds are still slower than ideal though.
