Vesta's Approach

• Automatic derived file management

  • Intermediate files are managed transparently, out of the user's way (no management of "build areas" required)
  • Only the target derived files (executables, libraries, formatted documentation, etc.) need to be copied outside Vesta

• Site-wide caching of all build work

  • All user's share each other's compilation work implicitly (you never need to perform a compile if someone else already has)
