<p>Autotools (especially libtool) is very slow on MinGW. On my
system, compiling the /extra externals takes significantly longer
than compiling the actual Pd application, only because of libtool.

<p>If you want to get faster build times, rewrite the build system
in CMake and compile with MSVC :-)</p>

<p>How often do you need to recompile whole Pd? Usually, you just
change 1-2 files and this should compile and link rather quickly.
"make app" is also slow (again, because of libtool). Usually, I
only run "make app" once and then just copy pd.dll into the Pd
folder on the command line (assuming you only make changes to the
core):</p>

<p>cp ./src/pd.dll ./pd-0.50.2/bin</p>

I'm using the usual build tools (as in INSTALL.txt) for
compiling PD. Builds here can take several minutes for
completion.<br>
