Yes, that is a fair statement. I haven't found the extra compile time to
be a limiting factor in my productivity. I'm on hardware that, while not
quite as slow as what you were working with, is at least three generations

Hopefully that will change with a phasing out of "dumb linkers." The
link time is my #1 bottleneck in compiler time right now.
