--- Comment #18 from Piotr Kubaj <pkubaj@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Robert Clausecker from comment #17)
Are build times that relevant? Sure, if you insist on building manually on a
slow hardware, it's going to be painful, but we have binary packages for su=
ch
users.

IMO faster and smaller packages for everyone is worth it and we have package
cluster exactly to allow users to easily install ready-to-use packages.

If for some reason builds time out on the cluster (don't know, didn't check=
),
then you should open a new PR to ask portmgr@ to increase timeouts (or maybe
use more threads to build gcc). Since I'm not in portmgr@, I can't do that.

Although I was not around at that time, I believe when -O2 was added to def=
ault
flags, many people also complained about that, due to more resources being
used, but after all, it was worth the cost. Or do you also add -O0 to your
builds to make them faster?
