You can use IMHO MICO well (http://www.mico.org). It's CORBA impl. in C++
and it's quite small - in comparison with for example ACE/TAO. You can use
simple:

cd mico
./configure --disable-static
time make

This way, you will compile a lot of services which involves running MICO
IDL compiler => you will also test performance of generated code.

If you would like to just compile some minimal build (12 minutes on 1GHz
PIII with gcc2.95.4), then you can use:

cd mico
./configure --disable-static --disable-coss
time make

You can also use --disable-optimize configure option to switch from -O2 to
-O0.

Thanks,

Karel
