Increasing Build Speed

Hello,

is there a way to increase the build speed of the real view compiler? At work we have a project which uses C++ /SAM9263 CPU which takes about 10 Minutes at the moment. My colleagues tried pre-compiled headers but it still takes very long. Is it possible to start multiple threads like in an Eclipse/GNU compiler environment?

  • If Makefiles are being used, please do not break the dependency graph! Give make a single Makefile consisting of a full description of your source file structure and it will be able to figure out everything by itself. Don't use recursive Makefiles.

    Assuming you are using MDK, I am not sure how long licenses will remain checked out. make -j might(!) not give you the expected speed up, if you only have a small pool. OTOH, the results won't be worse than with a single threaded make. Note that "thread" is used as a general term here and not synonymous with an LWP.
