Compilation Benchmarks

Compilation speed directly affects iteration time when developing an engine. Since nCine continues to grow, I thought it would be interesting to measure how long a full build takes today compared to 2018, when I wrote the first article, and 2022, when I wrote the second one.

I just got a new laptop, an Asus ROG Zephyrus G15 GA503RM (2022), and of course, I’m timing the nCine compilation to see how much time it will make me save. 😉 Should you be interested in the first compilation benchmark article, it is available here.

Are you curious about the time I spend to compile the nCine? 😄 In this post I’m going to show how much time is needed to compile the engine on different platforms.
