Re: [Tuxmath-devel] Further performance improvement with more caching mechanisms

Hi,

> Has anyone else tried the new program? Any feedback is most welcome!

I built it just now on my home desktop and it works great.  I also
built and ran it on a Dell Mini 9 (a much slower machine), and also
had excellent results.  The first execution has a few seconds of
delay, but after that the program responds quite quickly both at
startup and change of resolution.

Hooray!

On a completely unrelated note, I noticed one build pitfall that is
triggered if the same build directory is used for a CMake build and
then an autotools build - CMake puts config.h under src, whereas
autoheader puts config.h directly into the build directory.  The
problem is that they don't create  equivalent files, and the CMake
version shows up first in the include path, so a subsequent autotools
build doesn't find the correct config.h.  This leads to an compile
error the first time something from config.h is needed, in this case
PACKAGE.

The moral of the story is that when testing both build systems, keep
each in its own build directory.
