Considder breaking up your files into smaller pieces. The compiler can't always
handle huge files, but the linker can.

Remember to make any globals defined as extern. This is annoying, but can speed
up compilation. Make a MAKEFILE and only modified functions will be compiled,
and the linker will take the rest.
