after updating to version 1.1601.30 today from a 1.1511 version the compile time has increased exponentially.  compiling my sketch in the arduino ide takes about 15 seconds.  in the new version it takes nearly 5-6 minutes!  the previous VM version worked perfectly.  what changed and how can i go back to my earlier version.  compile log is attached

i discovered that unchecking the deep search fixed the slow compile time.  what does the deep search do?  i would like to be able to use that option if it's valuable!!

"Deep search" discovers libraries in libraries that are not #included in the project code

It is a standard feature of arduino 1.6.6+ and can not be disabled.

Example: New users often don't know to include SPI.h when they use certain libraries that reply on SPI. Deep search finds the related SPI library and automatically compiles it.

tip: This feature is mentioned in the release notes. Library "discovery/speed improvement" is mentioned in the news at the top of the visualmicro.com homepage
