That "loop" is the multilib profile you're probably using, which will
compile you both 64-bit and 32-bit version of gcc?
You also stated in an earlier email that your system has an Athlon
3000+ processor. As a comparison, here with an Athlon 3500+ and 3GB of
RAM the gcc:4.3 compilation takes around two hours if the ccache is
empty and an hour and 20 minutes if it hits mostly the cache, so the
duration doesn't appear surprising for a first compilation (varying by
the USE flags, naturally).

I'm still fighting with my two machines, recompiling system, and world with new GCC even though, it was not necessary; I wish developers mentioned it
after emerging new gcc "no need to recompile the system"
I just read few posts on the forum and did what others suggested: recompiled the world but is is not going smooth;
maybe it is time for me to try something easier "ubuntu etc" as I'm not very happy with Gentoo, the upgrade and installation are harder to manage.
