[CMake] load_command not scriptable

[David Cole]

You could patch the executable to make cmLoadCommandCommand return
true from IsScriptable... but if you're going to the trouble of
patching CMake anyhow, why not simply build your loadable command
directly into CMake...?

The other thing might be to mention specifically what the performance
problem is on the mailing list here to see if anybody has any ideas
how we could make things faster..... And totally preclude your need to
load an additional command in the first place.

Or profile it and submit a patch to improve the performance in this situation.


HTH,
David C.
