heh Jamie,

its 10x (might be slight exag) longer to compile.
i normally make code changes and compile the 2 or 3 modules I've been
working on.
its quick and simple.
with c++ even the simplest files are slow.
its like waiting for visual studio to run, an age.
and my method of on device compilation is FASTER for normal day to day
coding than scratchbox and copy and execute :)
its got obvious serious drawbacks tho lol
