I've noticed that when I'm fine tuning a class, I seem to get a quick
compile time. Then, if I have to compile another class with a change, it
takes much longer to compile. The next time I compile the 2nd class, it
compiles quickly.
Does the compiler do anything like track changes in files or use previous
compile output while compiling a file a 2nd or third time?
If not, why is there a difference in compile times? It's long enough I
would think it's not just a disk-buffering issue.
