Publising times for IOS using Flash CS5.5

I am doing some tests with Flash CS5.5 and AIR 3.0 and literally testing a hello world type app.

It is taking a considerable amount of time to create the ipa file. I timed it and it was about 12 minutes. I have a reasonably good spec PC son wondered if this is the normal amount of time it takes to publish?

Thanks in advance...

I'm using Flash CS5.5 too, I'm using a 4 year old laptop, it takes only about 1-2 mins for me to publish an ios app. I've seen other say it takes 10-30 mins, donno why that is when they have way faster computers than me.

Android on the other hand is like 5 secs.

Thanks for the reply. That is really strange how the publishing time varies so much. I tested on my Mac and it was about 2.5 minutes - the great thing on the Mac is that it estimates the publishing time and then counts down the time however there was an additional delay once it had reached zero but still way quicker than on the PC for an identical build.

I have done a lot of timings, and one curiosity is that you do get an extra delay once it gets to 5 seconds left if you are doing a Quick build, but if you're doing a ad hoc or app store build, even though it takes longer, it doesn't do the same stalling near the end.
