autosplit #3

Open haarg opened 7 years ago

I think including autosplit in this is very questionable. Autosplit is rarely used these days, and it adds complexity and slows down the install process. I know when I was profiling EUMM installs on Win32, autosplit was a significant part of the install time, even though no autosplitting was actually taking place.

It's traditionally the way things have worked, but I would agree it's not a good way.

i don't even know how autosplit works. does MBT support it?

Yes, pm_to_blib does it.

OK, so the current implementation supports it as a side effect of the pm_to_blib implementation.
