Is cleaning not necessary when building each time then? By default if im adding or updating modules I always cleaned first then build, is this not necessary?

Also, it is true that usage does degrade CPUs, but not nearly in the way it's being discussed here. If that were true I wouldnt still have 4 x86 Dell laptops that still run perfectly well. I also have a CPU I purchased 15 years ago that I built all kinds of software with, it now runs 24/7 for over 6 years in a server I have and there's almost no noticeable degradation.
I wouldn't worry about doing a full rebuild at all. The only thing you lose is time. Sometimes Cmake doesn't properly find all the intermediaries it needs to update and you can get strange behavior and need a clean anyways.

It's not necessary, but like I said. Sometimes cmake doesn't always correctly determine what files need to be re-compiled. A full rebuild guarantees that happens, so can be considered "safer", but generally cmake does a good job of only building what needs to be re-built.

Thanks for your reply. Maybe to be safe I'll continue to clean each time. A build using playerbots fork takes only 11 minutes anyway so nothing crazy
