middleman build is realy slow #13

I just gave middleman a try and used personal-site-template for the first time. Testing a blog with 2 pages tooks 5m51.632s to build which I found terrible slow. Can you please point me to some common bottlenecks that could explain this behaviour?

I am running this with ruby 1.9.3p194 in a kvm based virtual machine.

Unfortunately, your pain tolerance is going to be highly dependent upon the speed of your machine, in this instance. The best thing I can recommend would be to simply delete files that you aren't using from the manifest files (application.js and application.scss.css). You could also try asking the fine folks over at the Middleman forum.
