FYI, I'm currently hacking on the performance problems of omake for very
large builds (sponsored by Lexifi), and I'm making progress. My test
project with 4096 modules is now built in 7 minutes instead of 24
(single core). It's a fairly interesting exercise to view the build
system from the perspective of a performance engineer, e.g. I'm
currently redesigning the target cache that is backing the
interpretation of the "ocamldep -modules" output to quickly find the
files corresponding to the modules.
