我的理解是，MS在VS2010中对链接器进行的重大更改(性能方面)是，在单独的线程上完成了.pdb文件的编写.当然，由于链接器的作用远不止于此，因此它会改善总体链接时间是有限制的:

• 链接器吞吐量

这是一篇文章，展示了如果您对该分析感兴趣的话，如何获得一些更详细的时序统计信息:

And here's an article that shows how you can get some more detailed timing statistics if you're interested in that analysis:

• 无论如何，通过添加一套新工具将速度提高25％似乎对我来说是一个很好的结果.

  Anyway, a 25% improvement in speed by just dropping in a new set of tools seems to be a pretty good result to me.
