Hey guys,<div><br></div><div>One of the requirements for a continuous integration process is that the build for a specific target be quick. Something under 10 minutes is ideal. I find that when not using precompiled headers, boost can significantly impact the compilation time of the project. I&#39;ve experienced 20 minute compiles when using boost fairly extensively throughout the code base.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So far I only see two obvious solutions to this problem. First, use precompiled headers. I really don&#39;t want to do this because it causes issues with include dependencies and makes the code not reusable as a result. The second option is to beef up the machines doing the compiles, however this can have diminishing returns.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I am sure that a lot of people in the community have had this specific issue with Boost&#39;s compile times, as well as in many other areas. What would you guys recommend? Is there any other solution beyond the obvious?</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks for your time.</div>
