Currently the dependencies are quite limited. We know only that some source file A depends on another source file B, and so recompile A whenever B changes signature. If we knew which functions of B file A uses then we could restrict compilation to the times that the signature of these functions change. I think his is what IntelliJ does - albeit imperfectly.
