for the bootstrap: that's 1h14 elapsed time. That's on a "AMD
Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+" (2.4 GHz) with make -j3.
That's 129min of CPU time in 74min of elapsed time, a pretty good
processor utilization ratio of 1.75 : 2.
Is that using the i686 or amd64 instruction set? If the latter, does it
use 32 or 64 bit pointers?
How much RAM dos this machine have, and how fast is it?
Has anybody any figures what impact the choice of CAS 2 / CAS 2.5 / CAS3
NON-ECC / ECC
memory has on system performance when doing gcc builds / regression tests?
