Looking at my testing PPC box with grep-available, we have only about 8GB total Installed-Size. So I would expect a ccache of 1GB (the default) to be a net gain, given that not all packages are built with the same regularity. 10GB should definitely do it, well within ccache's capability. -- Thanks for your mail, Paul. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
