 * I've survived make world from Monday.  On a Compaq Presario of all things

 * solid as a single user workstation.

I've survived a make world from 3/24, 3/26 and 3/31.  (In fact, this
is the machine that "packages-current" is built from now.)  This is a
P6-200 with an IDE system disk and 3940W with a Seagate ST15150W.

However, the NFS client appears to be hopelessly broken (I don't know
about the NFS server, this machine isn't one).  I initially had the
ports/distfiles pointing to a directory on an NFS server (running
FreeBSD-2.1.5).  At some point during the package builds, a process
locks up trying to read/write a distfile, and the whole NFS system
went down on this machine (I could still login as "root", as long as I
didn't try to touch NFS-mounted directories).  I changed
ports/distfiles to a local directory and it appears to be fairly
stable since then.
