Did you actually test it or do you just think so ?
I just tried it out for you:
Compile time with includes: 1.00 seconds
Compile time without: 1.00 seconds
It doesn't really read all files in every include, it just reads
smlib.inc and cancels at the second line:
PHP Code:
#if defined _smlib_included
#endinput
#endif

Why are you concerned about syntax-highlighting function that are not referenced in the file?

Also wrong, Functions of
<sourcemod> and
<sdktools> (fake included in
smlib.inc) are used in almost every include file.
Again, they aren't really included for the compiler as it will cancel before in
smlib.inc.

Including all of the includes in all of the files is an extremely bad practice. I would never allow anything that does that into our production systems at VW and neither would any of my co-workers.

Oh, does VW also use SourcePawn & Pawnstudio ? lol
Believe me, I wouldn't do it if there would be a more beautiful way,
but SourcePawn just isn't C++, so we have to take what we get.
And Syntax Highlighting and Autocompletion makes the Development of smlib just way easier.
