PostgreSQL compile time is minimal compared to other packages. If you're worried about 30 seconds, turn off the optimization or use parallel make. If you see yourself doing a full build too often, turn on dependency tracking. The extra time you spend building with -g is the time you save yourself and the users from having to recompile everything because a bug needs to be tracked down. And when you rebuild, the bug might not be reproduceable. I don't buy the disk space argument either. If you're worried about a few megabytes then you going to have a lot of trouble running a database. And if you're still worried, you can run install-strip, which is the standard way to do it. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net
