It never was a single DAG, so that never changed. It however used to have a trick that avoided part of the recursion, but it was complex and didn't work to make 'build binaries' part of the normal build. > It would be nice if we got to a state where we had a 'build faster' like > target that supported all the most frequently modified extensions > all-in-one (say cpp/h/js/jsm/idl/css/xul). The eventual goal is for the 'build faster' thing to be the default, but it's a long way there. I definitely want to add binaries to the equation, but the first goal was to provide something that works well enough to help frontend developers.
