My Visual Studio .net c++ 7.1 2003 native app is in its 6th minute linking,
so I thought I'd log on and say hello. Hello.

BTW, the same app takes almost an order of magnitude less time to link with
Visual C 6.0. Why does the linking take so much longer?

:(
 
It is not normal for linking to take 10 times longer. Something must have
changed besides linking. How large is the resulting image.

Did you enable /LTCG aka 'Whole Program Optimization'? Because that
would do it.
