You have a built PE and want to add only one additional app.
To compare times, let's assume, that your build is "Minimum": No Apps, no drivers, just able to run into an emulator.
Let's assume, too, that the app you want to add, is not very complicated. Let's choose SumatraPDF for test
Preface: All times measured on my PC. On other PCs it may be different.
Situation #1: Project on Win7RescuePE:
- Navigate to "SumatraPDF" in the project tree
- Check the script to add this app
- Rebuild the project
- Wait 11:45 minutes until running into emulator
(It is already known that nativeEx_win7 in the second and following runs is much faster)
- Navigate to "SumatraPDF" in the project tree
- Check the script to add this app
- Rebuild the project
- Wait 3:09 minutes until running into emulator
- Navigate to the SumatraPDF script
- Optionally check it for the next run (not necessary to add to the current build)
- Click the green triangle to run the script
- Navigate to Finalize > PostConfigEx
- Click "Rebuild boot.wim"
- Wait 1:42 minutes until running into emulator
BTW: Please have a look at the lower panel

EDIT: Sorry, I forgot "Click the green triangle to run the script". Added now.
