apparently. when compiling qb64 creates many temp directories and many disk accesses that certainly slow down the processing. a ramdisk can remedy this and these temporary data disappear at each system shutdown ...
the modification could be done as follows:
- add an option in the menu of the editor of qb64 to specify a directory where to create the temporary files.
- add a command line option or in case the qb64 editor is not used.
- if the directory does not exist. create it automatically.
another advantage is to preserve the health of ssd disks that don't support too frequent disk writes.
this is just a suggestion...
