I read something (somewhere) about speeding up buildworlds with a ramdisk
mounted to /usr/obj *IF* you have a lot of RAM but I cant seem to find it
anymore. Any help? What are you guys doing to speed up your worlds? Are
people still passing -j# option to make or is that old school now?
Passing -j4 to my dual p3-500 didn't speed up buildworld at all but it speed
up the kernel build/install plenty. Unfortunately it broke the installworld
so I just did the installworld without the -j4 and it was fine. C'mon guys,
spit out the tips-n-tricks :)
