Right, I was trying to illustrate how to have minimal turnaround time when testing a small code change. Rebuilding from scratch is slow enough that you lose focus while waiting. (Or I do, anyway.) Granted, stuff like ccache can help with that, but why not adopt a process that's not slow in the first place? regards, tom lane
