There are a lot more factors that could come into play here; degrading hardware, worse kernel, fragmentation and usage of a disk, newer compiler, newer libraries used by the compiler and build tools, the list can go on for a while ... I ... eh ... have no clue where to get started; so, I suggest you try to improve performance (using simply tips & tricks or so) as well as try to bisect whether an older version of something improves the situation to maybe find the cause. Other than that, word of warning, you might end up spending more time than the compiles cost you, so, maybe a reinstall after all is a good idea to start fresh? If it still is broken after a clean reinstall ... it is hardware. -- With kind regards, Tom Wijsman (TomWij) Gentoo Developer E-mail address : tom...@gentoo.org GPG Public Key : 6D34E57D GPG Fingerprint : C165 AF18 AB4C 400B C3D2 ABF0 95B2 1FCD 6D34 E57D
