The first time you compile ooc source with rock will take a little longer than subsequent builds because of the nature of the compilation to C99 followed by compilation of C process. In the .libs directory - that is created wherever you call rock - the compiler will produce not only C code for your ooc but also produce the C code for the language constructs used by your code under .libs/ooc/sdk. Future compiles (especially those that do not use additional language features or parts of the sdk) will be significantly more spritely. Enjoy!
