The PandaBoard auto builders are having a hard time keeping with
longer build and test times of 4.7 and the re-enabled libstdc++ tests.
  For reference, here's how much each step costs:

Bootstrap GCC with C, C++, Fortran, and Obj-C: 9 hours
Test GCC: 9.5 hours
Test libstdc++: 4.4 hours
Test libgomp: 0.9 hours
Other tests: 0.2 hours

for a grand total of 23.8 hours.  Every new commit gives a merge
request and trunk build for both A9 and ARMv5 giving 95 hours of
compute time.  GCC 4.6 takes five hours to build and 5.5 to test.

This is just a FYI.  I'll think about ways of speeding things up or
adding capacity.  An i.MX6 with 2 GB of RAM and SATA would be nice...

Have you experimented with --disable-build-with-cxx and/or --disable-build-poststage1-with-cxx? (Actually, I think only the latter is enabled by default.) I know C++ takes longer to compile, so maybe C takes longer with the C++ compiler also?

Of course, it might be that this ceases to be an option sooner or later, if GCC takes the plunge and uses C++ features.
