Long link times

Hi,

Just recently (last day or two) my link times (a mixed mode VC++ project)
have gone up a lot. It was previously taking a minute or 2, but is now
closer to 10, and I don't think I've added anything to cause it. Watching
task manager I'm seeing that link.exe is taking very little processor time
(between 0 and 6%, but mostly hovering between 0 and 3%) and gradually
consuming memory. This happens while "Linking... " is displayed. After this,
I get a "LINK : warning LNK4075: ignoring '/EDITANDCONTINUE ' due to
'/INCREMENTAL:NO' specification" warning, which I've always had, and then
link.exe's processor usage jumps to 95%, though this stage seems to take
longer than it used to. Does anyone know of any possible causes of this? 10
minute link times are ridiculous on a 2.5 GHz machine, even if the (single)
project is fairly big.

I'm developing an intranet application using W2k server and IE5.5 - 6.x clients. I've got one particular function that calls a stored procedure to update a number of records, depending on user input. The problem we have run into is that this procedure can take a few minutes to complete in certain circumstances, and of course IIS times out. I've been doing some searching for a solution, but most of the answers I've found relate to...

Hi all I have used knowledge base article 112747 to improve my subforms performance. I am using Access 97. I have a main form where i put an extra textbox which concatenated TeamID WeekNum Weekday, ie value might be 15Monday. I then put in a field in my query behind my subform which held the same info and used these fields to link the mainform to the subform.

Hi, I have a vc++6 project I migrated to vc++7 .NET. If I only migrate without using managed extension, link step takes 8 seconds. If I check "use manage extensions" in project properties, link step takes 4 minutes. I use incremental link. Why such a difference? Thanks steph

Hi, Sorry to repost, but this is becoming aggravating, and causing me a lot of wasted time. I've got a reasonably large mixed C++ project, and after a number of builds (but not a constant number) linking (and sometimes compiling) becomes immensely slow, and task manager shows that link.exe (or cl.exe) is barely using any processor time, but an awful lot of RAM (around 150-200MB). I'm going to keep an eye on page faults since I can't...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
