The last few days when I try to compile my C2000 project the process takes a very long time. Although I have set the project to compile using 8 parallel jobs, I see in the console that after the 8 first jobs are started at once, the next ones take a lot of time and start once at a time.
Testing with the network connection disabled I found that the problem is gone. So I monitored the connections started by CCS and found that during compilation it makes requests to port 80 of various akamai IPs like 104.96.149.54 ! It seems rather strange, if not suspicious, that this is happening so I would like to know why is CCS making these requests every time a new compiler job is fired and what kind of information is exchanged. The fact that this "feature" also delays significantly my work is even worse, though to be fair it was the reason I looked into the problem and found about this strange behavior.
I have tried blocking CCS access to the specific IPs but this only works for a few hours or a day because the IPs change after that.
