This has resulted in a major speed-up when building GIMP, allowing for quicker testing and development.</p><p><a href="https://mesonbuild.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">mesonbuild.com/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/GIMP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GIMP</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Meson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Meson</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/build" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>build</span></a></p>
