Re: [OT] Future of CW - today's announcement at AdHoc

In our experience, the compiles go a whole lot faster if you don't use Xcode and instead just use a makefile that invokes the tools
directly. On the other hand, make is very restricting.

The difference there is probably the indexing that Xcode does. For what it's worth, CW also offers indexing in order to provide the same pretty much the same features as Xcode uses indexing for (symbol look-up in headers and docs, or actually I think only Xcode offers the look-up in docs). And it also slows things down in CW. But in CW, it is off by default, and in Xcode, it is on by default. That honestly might be a large part of the difference that folks experience, though I'm not sure of that. I use the symbol header and docs look-up feature a lot in Xcode, I find it very useful, so I find it to be worth the speed penalty personally.
