Well, to prove what I said, I repartitioned my disks and tried again.

Here's my setup:

 @ 233MHz P6 (overclocked, obviously :) with 256KB, Asus P/I-P6NP5

 @ 96MB main memory (FPM, ECC enabled)

 @ two 4GB 7200RPM F/W disks, partitioned as (size in MB):

   /(32), swap (128), /tmp (16), /var (16), /usr (128),
   scratch (384), rest (3400)

   /, /tmp, /var, /usr on the second disk is not used.  The "scratch"
   on first disk is /usr/src, and is /usr/obj on second disk, and
   these are mounted mounted async,noatime.  The "rest" partition
   contains home directories, the cvs tree and such, and aren't used
   by make world.  (In other words, the heads only need to seek the
   first 1/6 of each disk.)

 @ Full /usr/obj, -DNOCLEAN not set, NOPROFILE set, CFLAGS="-O pipe".

 @ X window shut down, make world running on syscons console.

The result was:

 "5093.48 real      3316.52 user       837.60 sys"

That's 1:24:53. :)
