[fluid-dev] build efficiency

[Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas]

Hi all,

Compiling FluidSynth SVN, and comparing the results in a Linux machine, with 
the same set of options, running the command:

$ time make

when using the CMake buildsystem:

real    0m10.156s
user    0m7.756s
sys     0m2.072s

when using the autotools buildsystem:

real    0m53.649s
user    0m42.499s
sys     0m8.677s

It is not totally fair, because the autotools buildsystem creates at the same 
time the shared object and the static library, and cmake builds only one 
(I've just added the option to build a static library, BTW). That justifies 
doubling the build time, but... more than five times?

Regards,
Pedro
