16 years agoI installed the dev tools on another computer (XP, P4 2.4GHz) and the build times there are very good, a full rebuild is about 2min, and a build after changing one source file is 7sec. So something is up with my main PC (XP, Core 2 duo 2.67GHz) that's causing the slowness. Reinstalling the dev tools on my main PC didn't help.
Could the Cygwin installed with the Xilinx tools cause a problem like this? I haven't tried updating Cygwin yet. Can I just install it using the Cygwin installer, or do I need to copy files into the Altera directory? I'm not sure how to do a command line build.
