I expect I'm one of the few people who recompiles Emacs (very) regularly and who uses a 266Mhz PII machine to do those recompiles, and yet I have gone through the trouble of adding all those dependencies to lisp.h (via `makedepend') and haven't actually been annoyed by them. I suffer more from Emacs's own performance problems (that I still haven't had enough time to really investigate) than from excessive recompilation. Stefan
