Re: CodeWarrrior Compilation Extremely Slow

We are currently on a Windows XP environment. We have bit torrent on
most computers and AVG installed in a few others. We have tried
disabling the antivirus and there is no improvement in performance.
Code Warrior doesn't check any subdirectories during the build
process, it just focuses in the files it needs and it doesn't create
copies
of source directories like you suggested.
If there is any more info you need let me know. We have tried a lot of
things but the only that work are to add everything to svn ignore list
or to export the working copy to a different local folder.
We just did the test of how much longer it takes to compile. An
exported or regular project takes 50 seconds vs 2 minutes with a
project
that is linked with SVN.

We have other people working with Eclipse and they haven't noticed any
slow down at all on compilations.

Thanks again for your help.
