Speeding up gcc
Sometime I like to use bleeding edge svn apps but compiling them with the default slackware gcc is really slow.
I have noticed when compiling in Gentoo that is much faster but I still like my slack-box.
Is there anyway I can compile faster? How can I set flags for the compiler?Put your hand in an oven for a minute and it will be like an hour, sit beside a beautiful woman for an hour and it will be like a minute, that is relativity. --Albert Einstein

I don't know about gcc, but I've used TCC in the past for fast compilation of non-critical software. It doesn't have all the option GCC have, so makefiles might need to be changed, but over all, it works just the same.

I don't want to get my hands dirty by changing Makefiles, but thanks anyway
Maybe you can help me with setting the option -pipe for the compiler?Put your hand in an oven for a minute and it will be like an hour, sit beside a beautiful woman for an hour and it will be like a minute, that is relativity. --Albert Einstein
