ok!!
Here is my reply to my post. I did some source code browsing and what I
realised that what is happening is that all the files (no matter what;
you can try sticking your biography in there and it will get copied too
;) ) from the HintPath directory are picked up when there is a
reference and are copied over to the bin directory. Please correct me
if I am wrong (I do not claim I am 100% right). So if you want to
improve the performance you need to tweak the source code a bit so that
only those references are copied which you need. Need help with that??
Send me and email and I'll mail you what I have done. It is not as
difficult as you might think.
Bye.

Hi!
I am currently trying to upgrade to the nant 0.84 and was successful in
making the necessary changes. I am having a performance issue though.
Whenever I have a reference of the form A.D.dll, what the nant is doing
is that it copies all the dlls having A.D.*(A.D.dll, A.D.S.dll,
A.D.T.dll, ...) to the bin/Debug. This results in a lot of extra and
unnecessary files being copied and hence loss in performance. Am I
missing something?
Please reply.
Thanks,
Aditya
