Compiling is too slow ..

Post by snow99 »

Solaris 8 ( Forte[tm] C++ 6 )

I have a test machine which has 1 copy license of the C++ compiler.
When I compile a px job it need over 3 minutes so I can't compile other C++ program in same time.
Even after the compiling of the PX job is done I have this message "License : All 1 license(s) for Sun WorkShop Compiler C++ SPARC are currently in use, queuing the request".
So it mean it doesn't finish to compile the Px job.

Do you have same experience like it ?

when the License is used for the compile, is it assigned with a time out? (unix / compiler settings) It maybe that the licence isn't 'released' straight away by the OS/compiler?

The parallel jobs are slow in compilation but fast on execution.
I am also facing this issue.

I too go by what eric said.

Some tools / softwares have a timeout set for the license to be released.
So, once the software is used the license will get released only when the tool idle time exceeds the specified timeout. ClearCase, ClearQuest are examples of such tools.

But I am not sure of this C++ compiler's license.

Please check out the license details.

Hi,

Parallel jobs compilation is very fast and execution is also very fast compare to Server jobs. But the compilation takes time to compile a job if the job has transformer because it needs to build object libraries it seems.

Hi
Time compilation is long if you re using a transformer try the switch/filter/modify instead
All the best
