Are you using gcc or djgpp? Anyway, try setting the /temp directory to
a ramdrive. Be sure that the /bin directory is in the beginning of the
path. I've got a copy of go32.exe in my source directory so it gets
found faster when I compile things. Other than that, I can't think of
much to speed it up.
I've got a 486sx25 w/4MB memory and I compile most stuff in about 15 or
20 seconds. My record is 12 seconds. My other record is 3.5 minutes
(but that was a fluke - when I rebooted and compiled the same thing, it
went a lot faster).

Hm... might want to add -lm to that for when you want to use math...
also you might like -O3 to get optimizations. And you're not running the
result through coff2exe. I added "strip -s a.out" to my batch to get
smaller programs. I also put "c:\dos\smartdrv /c" at the end to flush
the write cache.
