I tried several make world in these days trying different configurations
to see which of them works better...

I saw that async is performing better than softupdates (is it possible
???) ... infact :

**** -j4 build+install X softup *****
---- Start Make World : Thu Mar 26 21:56:33 GMT 1998
---- End Make World : Thu Mar 26 23:41:36 GMT 1998

1h 45m


**** -j4 build+install X async *****
---- Start Make World : Fri Mar 27 07:02:58 GMT 1998
---- End Make World : Fri Mar 27 08:26:35 GMT 1998

1h 24m


**** -j4 build+install notcl noprofi noperl noX async *****
---- Start Make World : Fri Mar 27 10:43:23 GMT 1998
---- End Make World : Fri Mar 27 11:56:25 GMT 1998

1h 13m


**** -j4 world notcl noprofi noperl noX async *****
---- Start Make World : Fri Mar 27 20:29:01 GMT 1998
---- End Make World : Fri Mar 27 21:41:02 GMT 1998

Now considering that my box is a Pentium 2 (300mhz) with a2940uw
(onboard) and two hd wide scsi /usr/src and /usr/obj on two different
drives... it seems to me that I am quite slow considering the times I
saw in this area...

Any suggests ?
