<div dir="ltr">We have executables and libraries and a lot of custom targets (the project is organized so that we export headers during the build - not the best idea in the world). However, I finished (more or less) the script for building time stats from the cmake's trace and we (with my colleague) found the slowest part. In our cmake scripts we have a bunch of sub-projects which produce libraries and also we have an utility function with which we define dependencies between those sub-projects. Then we define executables and build a list of libraries in a right order (from more dependent to less dependent) using sub-project's dependencies. This list is necessary for linking the executables. So, it appears that the slowest part is the function that builds the list of libraries. Basically there is nothing wrong with that cmake function, it just intensively works with strings. :(<div>

<div class="gmail_extra" style><br></div><div class="gmail_extra" style>Also it looks like there are few bugs in the trace functionality of cmake; especially how callstack changes when cmake process foreach and if/else calls. I just didn't investigate them and I cannot provide more details. Sorry.</div>

Hi,<br>
<br>
We use Makefiles on Linux and MacOS. Windows is not our target platform.<br>
