Subject:	LINKING TIMES DJ1
To:	djgpp AT sun DOT soe DOT clarkson DOT edu

I have just changed over to version 11.
In versions 9 and 10 the link times were 1-2 minutes
and prog size about 400k.
In version 11 link time 45 minutes and prog size 1.4meg
The compile times are at least twice as long,.
The slow link is my major problem.
I have a 4meg 486 with a 1 meg cache and I
have optimized so that disk use is minimized.
This slow link time makes it impractical to use ver11
for a project of this size since I am continually changing
parts of it and then relinking.
I will go back to ver 9 / 10 until link is quicker.
How can this be done?
