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
