[Windows Mobile] tobbbie:
This is what I was used to for the preprocessing - so what has changed here?! CPU is busy at 100% for 1:20 and then things progress as usual. Nothing has changed in my settings anywhere - the effect is reproducible.

Will hunt it down a little with Sysinternals tools - there is no subprocess started from osbuilder, unlike the cutil.exe for the imgfs build.

It seems OSBuilder is reading all the files including imageinfo.bin and all the modules sections - for each and every single one. No clue why that happens. It seems that dedicated info from the imageinfo.bin is read step by step:

The usual call to rgucomp is what takes 2 seconds at the end - so the sequence of accessing imageinfo.bin and all modules sections is what takes so long - and what was not done before.

Need to find the switch to get that off again...

I cross checked all the lists that require a file-by-file processing in the "Configurations" drop-down, all of them are empty - like before with 1.3.199
