To questions to clarify:
-pipe
flag were not used?Can we set this from the command line instead?
We determined how to do this via commandline instead, so this change isn't needed. Furthermore, after testing on the MPACT CI, it seems that any differences from using -pipe
are in the noise, so it's likely not worth pursuing any further.
Closing this PR since it's unneeded.
Using pipes (keeping needed files loaded in memory instead of writing to disk) tends to speed up compilation as less disk writing/reading is done. It does, however, tend to increase memory usage during compilation. The speedup is machine dependent.
