Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Quite some time ago, i saw someone remark that they kept /usr/src on a parallel zip drive. I think it was a laptop, and he could cvsup when he was home, and yet have all the space when on the road. Does this make sense? How slow is a build world in this case? -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
