Re this thread: Array() function using Pairs causes slow Aggressive Compile
the title is dated and misleading - the actual core problem is the combination of
- Aggressive compile option
- any constant-to-variant conversions such as
var v as variant = "Foobar" - note that the Xojo Pair class uses Variants internally
@Underwriters_Technologies : If I were you I would do this:
- buy the beefiest hardware you can (because this is almost always cheaper than engineer time) and pays off in other ways
- stop using Aggressive compilation for the daily edit/compile/test development phase
- review your code for un-necessary use of Variants
- use Aggressive compilation only for Release builds. This is easy to do using Xojo Build Scripts and/or the IDE communicator
- as @Greg_O suggests, look into a CI/CD system for release builds
