It varies due to hardware, build options, caching, and the version of FreeBSD. The fastest machines take minutes, slower ones several hours. With every go-fast option enabled on this Xeon E3 system, a full buildworld and kernel takes about twenty minutes (excluding LLDB). With few or no changes to source, that can be repeated in under two minutes, because it's all in cache thanks to bdrewery's build system work (NO_CLEAN and ccache). > Has make buildworld time constant over the years? No, although one version of FreeBSD usually has pretty consistent build times.
