I think what Andrey meant was, the first time we run the pre-processors, cache the locations of all the files that need to be pre-processed. On subsequent runs, we only need to check pre-processors the files in the cache.

Yes, something along the lines. Although I don't fully understand Herbert's comment, so I decided to open an issue about this so we could discuss this without spamming the ghc-devs mailing list: https://github.com/snowleopard/shaking-up-ghc/issues/210 Herbert, Thomas, and all -- I'd appreciate your input! Cheers, Andrey
