Well, this is in part why I sent mail--I have no idea what is good or not. I meant I'm a happy nerd more in the "look at my neat SMP toy" as opposed to "look how fast buildworld runs". I do know that the speed of make world is dependent to a large extent on the speed of your disks and how many spindles you have. How many disks do you have and where is your /usr/src and /usr/obj? At work I have a 450MHz PII with multiple 10000RPM SCSI disks, though I have never actually timed make buildworld on it.
