I currently use full compilation. I have no choice because the 
compiler isn't emitting all symbols I need and get linking errors 
when doing separate compilation. Compiling my code require more 
than 2.5Gb of RAM now and is quite slow.

To avoid multiple instantiation of the same template by the 
compiler, I guess the best option to me would be to compile on a 
by package basis.
