You can circumnavigate the world via ocean with a stopwatch and a 
compass! ;-)

(Not that I'd want to try that.  Throw in a sextant and some training on 
how to use it properly and I'd be happier.  Give me a GPS and let the 
GPS do the same math in reverse, and I'd be ecstatic!  GRIN...)

Let's gain a little perspective... if you can't easily see the 
difference on a stopwatch, even a badly run one, all that extra 
re-compiling isn't doing you as much good as you think it is!  :-)

Should be in the order of many seconds difference in time to make the 
lost time/productivity of re-compiling worth it.
