Well, I'm not cheating. ;-) Machine is KryoTech K6-3/550MHz on Asus P5A, 128M PC-100 SDRAM, Maxtor 7200rpm 20GB drive, softupdates on. I guess 550MHz 256KB L2 cache is working very well. Of course, I don't do 'make -jN' just make buildworld/world. I wonder if how KryoTech K7/900MHz(300MHz L2 cache) K7/800MHz (400MHz L2 cache) does?
