It might be quicker but my compiles are all <2h and if I can't bear the slowdown on the PC I'll go do something else.
what processor do you compile with?

Bumping the thread because more people should use this. It works really well.

I don't see any reason why anybody should not use it.

I personally find it too hard coded and restrictive. >:/ But I can never find into on why batch file compiles (and Nem's tool by extension) fail.

I can't believe so many use Hammer's built in compiler over this- I mean, if you already have a fav tool, that's great, but this is WAY better than the default!

have used it for a few months and love it. very very useful, especially since it allows my comp brain-space for light net browsing/etc. And the "cancel"

I use it exclusively. Of course I'm not doing anything crazy, but it works on the scale of my stuff really well

That's only because VBCT automatically runs the compilers at "Below Normal" priority, which you can do via the task manager regardless of how you started the compile. Not to mention all the compilers have -low and -high flags to specific their priority.

Really the only reason I see to use VBCT is being able to monitor the status of the compile. Every other thing about it I don't like.

ABS- that's cool, in fact I'm trying it now

I enjoy VBCT, find it helpful, though haven't tried others like it.
