Hi,
I am just getting started with Lazarus and really like what I see. I have been programming for a looong time, way before Delphi and have been a Delphi fan from v1.0 up to D2007. Nuff said.
Yesterday I got started with Lazarus, Zeos and SQLite and I am re-writing an application I wrote in Delphi v5pro. The compile and linking times are waaaay longer in Lazarus so I did some searching and did not find anything to help much, so the questions are.
Is there a list of recommended options for speed that still includes the Debug processes? I am a mere human and Debug is mandatory during development!
Would Lazarus work faster on a Linux platform? I am happy to have a dual boot process. I use a Laptop with win7pro, i7, SSD, 8GB etc and all the speed trimmings, but even D5 is three+ times faster to run an app in the IDE than Lazarus!
I am not complaining, I just want to get it optimized for compile, link and run speed. Even if I have to build a new all-in-one platform for it, I am OK with that. I am retired and like tinkering and ya cain't have too many toys.
Thanks
