Dear GCC Team,
When doing larger compilations (e.g. compiling linux kernels) lots of time
is wasted just by loading and unloading gcc in and out of memory.
Wouldn't it
be conceivable to have gcc being load into to background and waked up
again and again for new compilations ? For collections of small source
files,
this would prbably result in a remendous speed-up.
