Hi,

for some time now, compilation on my Mac mini (M2 chip) has been taking a very long time, but only the first compilation after a “clean project” or a change to the code.
The project is really very small.

What could be the cause?
B4i Version 8.90

Here is a screenshot; sometimes it even takes over 2 minutes.

This is indeed too slow. Have you tried to boot the Mac?

Yes, I even cleaned up the hard drive because it only had 7-8 GB free.

Here is today's test again.
1) B4i-start und compile


2) compile after a “clean project”

Hi Erel,

I have now used the “Activity Monitor” and taken two screenshots, but I don't see anything serious.



I also disabled all automatic background processes, but noticed no improvement.

I'm not an expert at all at this, but at this point I would be interested to know if you get the same slow speed if you use the hosted builders? And also, do you get the same slow speed for a completely new "hello world" project, if using the local builder?

I could try it, but unfortunately I don't have access to the hosted builders.
Maybe Erel can give me access for a few tests?

I've sent you an id for the hosted builder.

Thanks a lot, Erel!
I just tested it, and compilation runs much faster with your “Hosted Builder.”
This means that something on my server is not configured correctly, but what?

I've been cleaning up my Mac Mini over the last few days, so this new test may look better than the others today.
When I compare the two compilations (Hosted Builder and my Local Builder), there is only a 3-second(18.85s - 15.10s) difference; I think that's acceptable.


Thank you, Erel, for your excellent support.

I realized one more thing you could try, if you have the energy: create a brand new account on your Mac and install the builder in it. It just might make a difference.

Thank you for your tip, but as I already wrote, the problem is no longer a big problem, I think we can live with it.
