Hi, Despite the huge performance boost present in 6.8, it's not sufficient for huge projects (specially on non high-end machines). The reference project is ACE+TAO: (http://download.dre.vanderbilt.edu/previous_versions/ACE+TAO-5.6.8.tar.bz2). Here are the steps that I took: 1. mkdir build (in ACE_TAO main directory) 2. cd build 3. ../configure CFLAGS="-g3 -gdwarf-2" CXXFLAGS="-g3 -gdwarf-2" --enable-ace-reactor-notification-queue After creating the project in Netbeans (creating using existing source files), it still takes a very long time to finished and the memory consumption is too high. Citation from Alex (6.8): http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=171937 "Improved analyzing stage, change set: http://hg.netbeans.org/cnd-main/rev/14bfac6d7b50 - add buffering in the random access file - release file handlers if exception in the constructor - improve grep file Cumulative improvements of creating project on 4-core computer: Was: CPU time 32:57, real time 30 minutes Now: CPU time 27:53, real time 20 minutes So it is 33% of improvements." Thanks, Rolando
a lot of improvements was done in issue #171937
Rolando, I would suggest to look at the problem from another side. Main problem are a huge set of files in a project (15K files), multiply declarations/definitions with same name, a lot of dependencies between files. What do you thing about creating project(s) that includes some subset of needed sources and headers? Now our team thinking about "easy import" of binary file in IDE. Main idea: drag-and-drop binary from explorer into editor area of IDE. IDE creates model for needed binary and allows to run/debug executable. For example: d'n'd of ACE_wrappers/build/examples/C++NPv1/.libs/RTTPC_logging_server takes about 5 seconds for creating model (7 files). Bigger object ACE_wrappers/build/ace/.libs/libACE-5.6.8.so will be ready for 15 seconds (1032 files). What do you think about? You can try working d'n'd feature in current development build.

Hi Alexander, the concept is really good, I never thought on those terms. I tried with libACE.so and I was really impressed. It's elegant and I simply like it, because it can split "compilations units" into independent projects (and could have inder-dependencies) for better speed. Keep up the excellent work! Rolando
please evaluate for release 7.0
