I don't know off-hand exactly what its * specs are, or if jseger (I think he's the one who does -current * packages) has a second dedicated machine. I can't even remember * how often the packages are regenerated, come to think of it... My package building machine is one of the 24 P6-200 we have in our cluster. (See "http://art.cs.berkeley.edu/" if you want to know what they are doing in real life.) Justin and David O' have a P5-133 (ampere.freebsd.org) for building package-current. I usually build the entire packages tree every couple of weeks and copy them over to ftp.freebsd.org's packages-stable directory. (It takes about 2 days to build the whole thing.) packages-current is updated less frequently. (That depends on Justin and David's schedule, of course.) Satoshi
