Cotire - CMake lib for speeding up build times

Post by al2950 »

I know Ogre already has unity builds, but I just came across this little cmake lib and it was so easy to automagically add pre-compiled headers and unity build to my project I thought I should share. My build times went from 19 mins to 50 SECONDS !! :shock: (Admittedly one of my libraries is in a bit of mess when comes to include files)

Anyway if you want to check it out you can find it here;

That looks absolutely great :)

It would be interesting how it fares on a non-trivial (involved) project.

I've never heard of this, but from the description it sounds very promising. Thanks for sharing the info on it!
