I bet you compare different compilers. By default Xcode uses clang, and QtCreator gcc 4.2, which is much slower. Set up clang++ as C++ compiler, and it will be much faster. -- Regards, Konstantin _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
