Building Quantlib - Time Taken?

I am in the process of building Quantlib and the build process has been running for 5 hours now on a P4, 2Gig Ramm Pentium, Windows XP (Win32).

Should it be taking this long. I'm just starting to wonder if I will be here waiting this time tomorrow

Re: Building Quantlib - Time Taken?

haha.. Thanks.
Well, maybe it's my machine.
It is actually building, I can see that the examples are being built so it can't take too much longer. 6 hours now.

It just finished.. It took 6 hours. Wow..

In reply to this post by dom

What build chain are you using? In Visual Studio the object files should be created by parallel processes. E.g. I have a 4-core machine, so 4 compiler process will be running at all times until all objects are created. Then one linker process links them all.

Obviously, if, for some reason, only one compile process runs at a time, the build will take much longer.

Re: Building Quantlib - Time Taken?

I'm using MinGW 3.82.9 . Maybe that's the reason.

Re: Building Quantlib - Time Taken?

Are you using Dev-C++ or building from the command line? If the latter, running, for instance,

make -j 4

will build the library in parallel on 4 cores.

That's interesting. Thanks.
It's all done now but I'll remember that one for the future.
I used the command line.
