Comment by torarnv 18 hours ago CMake also does sequential configuration AFAIK. Is there any work to improve on that somewhere? 2 comments torarnv Reply OskarS 17 hours ago Meson and cmake in my experience are both MUCH faster though. It’s much less of an issue with these systems than with autotools. tavianator 11 hours ago Just tried reconfiguring LLVM: 27.24s user 8.71s system 99% cpu 36.218 total Admittedly the LLVM build time dwarfs the configuration time, but still. If you're only building a smaller component then the config time dominates: ninja libc 268.82s user 26.16s system 3246% cpu 9.086 total
