It requires you to recompile the entire module containing a changed routine, so compiles are not sped up. However, you use Jasik's PatchLink instead of MPW's Link and the speedup is dramatic. My normal links take about 90 seconds on a IIfx. (In fact they feel longer but that is the number the "time" command tells me.) PatchLink never takes longer than 2 or 3 seconds.
