Long compile times when changing tailwind.config.js

[afridley]

Im getting rebuild times of 53s whenever adding keyframes to the tailwind.config.js.

Im just running

tailwindcss -i ./src/styles/index.css -o ./dist/styles/index.css --watch

Is this to be expected?

Hey! Can you share a reproduction? Even on our biggest projects it’s like 300ms. My guess is maybe your content configuration is matching an insane number of files, is it a very broad glob?
