"""
A system for fast partial rebuilds

Creating a large amount of task objects up front can take some time.
By making a few assumptions, it is possible to avoid posting creating
task objects for targets that are already up-to-date.

On a silly benchmark the gain observed for 1M tasks can be 5m->10s
for a single file change.

Usage::

	def options(opt):
		opt.load('fast_partial')

Assumptions:
* Start with a clean build (run "waf distclean" after enabling)
* Mostly for C/C++/Fortran targets with link tasks (object-only targets are not handled)
  try it in the folder generated by utils/genbench.py
* For full project builds: no --targets and no pruning from subfolders
* The installation phase is ignored
* `use=` dependencies are specified up front even across build groups
* Task generator source files are not obtained from globs

Implementation details:
* The first layer obtains file timestamps to recalculate file hashes only
  when necessary (similar to md5_tstamp); the timestamps are then stored
  in a dedicated pickle file
* A second layer associates each task generator to a file set to help
  detecting changes. Task generators are to create their tasks only when
  the related files have been modified. A specific db file is created
  to store such data (5m -> 1m10)
* A third layer binds build context proxies onto task generators, replacing
  the default context. While loading data for the full build uses more memory
  (4GB -> 9GB), partial builds are then much faster (1m10 -> 13s)
* A fourth layer enables a 2-level cache on file signatures to
  reduce the size of the main pickle file (13s -> 10s)
