I speak of times where gcc3.4 took up to a minute to link (libmake/autoconf/libtool based library) our library, and now, using gcc4 (which is unfortunately a requirement, obviousely) takes MORE than 9 minutes to link;
This is, er, 'odd'. You've not really provided enough information though. Here are some questions,
1) what system are you using?
2) are you using the same binutils/libmak/autoconf/libtool with both 3.4 and 4.0?
3) do you know of any other piece of configuration that might have changed?
4) how are you invoking the linker?
5) what sort of application are you linking? How many libraries? Are the libraries the same, or have some of those been upgraded (and perhaps brought more dependencies with them)?
