Are you saying this is taking 45 minutes?  How is the 45 minutes being
spent?  What kind of computer are you running the compilation on?  A few
MB of source code isn't a lot these days.  I've been fooling a little
with ffmpeg, which has around 30MB of C code in 1800+ files and it takes
around 2.5 minutes to build from scratch on an i7-3770, a fairly fast
machine but not a monster.  Also, normally if you use something like
"make", you won't have to recompile all the source files if you just
make localized changes.

Not sure what an MSP56xx is and wasn't able to quickly figure it out.
