I timed my builds of pyRXPU for x86 + amd64; these are on a core i5-3470 @ 
3.20Ghz with 4Gb memory.

python 3.4   1 minute  14 seconds
python 3.5  52 minutes 50 seconds

so with VS2015 it will now take me an hour to make and test any changes to this 
extension. I don't see how the issue can be considered closed. VS2015 is clearly 
not the way forward for any reasonable development process.
