Re: [Dev-C++] how to improve mingw performance

[Cristian B. <cbu...@to...>]

Hello

The only thing to do is to add more memory
Plain C still takes a reasonable ammount of time to compile with GCC even on a 586/133 w. 16MB RAM. (Win 98). This is the lowest performance computer on which I have installed DEV-C++, yet.   

When it comes to C++... it-s painfully slow. I tried to compile a simple example using wxWindows library... HDD didn't stop working for more than 5 minutes. Seems to me that compiling C++ takes a huge ammount of resources.
