Mike, Thanks for the information and the clarification. As far at the optimization issue is concerned – I realize that it is a very complicated issue, I brought this up only as an illustration of what could be done. My comments concerning multi-thread capabilities were not intended to be restricted to optimization. Having one thread doing pre-compiles while another is doing compiles sans optimization is still a very valid idea. I recognize that simply adding multi-thread capabilities is not the panacea for everthing, but such capabilities could surely be leveraged to a much greater extent than they currently are for many products – C compilers included. I don't know of any compilers which do this either, on the other hand I don't know of any operating systems which are as ready and capable for something like this as NT is. Joe There is 1 Reply.
