1,905 PointsSwift compile time is too long
hi, I'm the newbie trying to learn Swift from the scratch. WHenever I type the new codes, the Swift takes at least 2 seconds just to go through a few lines of simple code for example, the code below takes 2-3 seconds. I'm not sure how to explain, but the top bar where it says "Ready" changes to loading sign for 2 seconds. It is normal to take this long ?
// Swift Functions
func calculateArea(length: Int, width: Int) -> Int { let area = length * width return area } // Room 1 let areaOfRoom1 = calculateArea(15, width: 22) areaOfRoom1 // Room 2 calculateArea(12, width: 15)
func someFunction() {
}

I have noticed, however, that the longer I have Xcode open and am working in it, the faster is does get. I usually start off at a few seconds to longer in the very beginning, but later on, it's a fraction of a second.
