Generating IDE binary files from source code is very slow.

I ran DownloadAndCompile.bat on my 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12650H CPU, and it took over 5 minutes to complete, with CPU usage not exceeding 30%. I want to contribute to the development of this IDE. How can I improve the compilation speed?

Welcome. When compiling for 64-bit, you can use the "-gen gas64" option, then it will compile quickly. The 32-bit compiles quickly on its own.

There is no Curl.EXE in Windows 7. Should we create a downloadable tool that works on all operating systems?

You can make a separate DownloadAndCompileWithCurl.bat Will download curl too.
