Re: [Boost-users] [1.34.0] building on cygwin fails out of the box

I've been having the very same problem. But with my crappy computer (512 Mb ram...) it took me 3 days for the install stage and, as you say, common.copytakes most of the time. Regards. - Arthur On 5/24/07, chun ping wang wrote:

basically yeah.. common.copy takes about 85 percent of the time.

hey thanks.. the ./configure make install now works .. but there is some problem with the build process.. for some reason on cygwin the installation happens to be super slow on my computer.. installing boost through dev-cpp takes 15 mintues top..installing through cygwin for some reason takes 5 hours ... ( common.copy). I know its a little off topic.. but taking 5 hours to install boost shouldn't be common..

This is indeed unexpected, but I have no idea what could be wrong. Is most of this time indeed spent copying files?
