Hi all,
after spending some days exploring how to speed up Dave compilation time, I have found a couple of options that give perceivable improved speed.

1) Change debug level from -g3 to -g:






2) Add -pipe option to compiler settings see below:



Result on my PC (i5 + SSD):

Project: PMSMSINH03_Example1

Standard settings: 66 secs
With new settings: 13 secs.

Please let me know your result/experience with the new settings.

Obviously after some testing they should become the default settings for next version of Dave

Best Regard

Oreste
PS.
With these settings no difference in the binary is expected.

Hi Oreste,
I tried your tips (on my notebook - i5; Hard Disk: 5400) - it looks very well:

Result on my PC (notebook - i5; Hard Drive: 5400 rpm):

Project: PMSMSINH03_Example1

Standard settings: 105 secs (Re-building project)
With -g (instead -g3): 23 secs (Re-building project)
With -pipe: 35 secs (Re-building project)
with both (-pipe AND -g): 20 secs (Re-building project)
