For most of the time, separate compilation was not possible at 
all because of various closure bugs. When it became possible at 
all it was a great relief. It was more intensive on CPU because 
of duplicated work, but it helped the memory consumption, which 
was an issue as 3+ Gb can make you swap pretty easily when you 
have other programs open (browsers, all of you, I'm looking at 
you. Do you have some kind of agreement with RAM manufacturer ?).
