Re: [Seqan-dev] Precompiled header

[Hannes Hauswedell <hannes.hauswedell@fu-berlin.de>]

Hi Yue,

sorry for the late reply. I have not yet tried precompiling the header and I 
am not sure how it would work at all with strongly templatized code → how 
would the compiler know which instantiations you actually use later on?
Although other sources claim its possible:
https://bytes.com/topic/net/answers/438738-should-templates-included-pch-files

Do other people have experience with this?

Something else you can do to speed up the build with SeqAn when using gcc is 
passing -flto=N where N is the number of your cores, possibly +1. This 
parallelizes most parts of the build even for a single translation unit.

Best regards,
