>Your project is too BIG!:-) It seems that instead of a faster build machine - you might do better to hire some people to optimize it (clean it up). It allmost sounds like the FPW or text dBase daze. I have seen projects that essentially copied code to another procedure just to change the title. Sometimes large code snipits were replicated twenty - thirty times.

The project is all VFP. This is just an extremely large product that has been in development for almost 20 years.
