I really thought I did elaborate (the whole rest of the post).
The effect on the project:
Most of the code I need to maintain is in hpp files. That is not due to the source code structure issue I mentioned, but due to our correctly doing almost all work in templated classes.
So most of the enhancements I make to the project involve edits to hpp files.
Each small amount of editing is followed by waiting a long time for a build, because many of the changes need to be tested before making the next change, but also because heavily templated C++ code makes it hard to debug some compile time failures when you have made more than a few changes since the last build (sometimes I need to build just to sort out compile time issues and don't even need to test).
All that adds up to more time spent waiting for builds than on doing the real work.
BTW, are you making the survey results public? It showed me results as of when I took the survey, but not very much because I seem to have been second. Most online surveys let those who took the survey check back later and see newer results. This one seems not to.
