I have a tendancy to stay with defaults because if anything like that
is going to happen, they try it on me first. I hadn't seen anything
like that. Looks like they have a hard link somewhere and Murphy got
you instead :). The only thing I tried was linking src/ and obj/ to
different HD's to see if concurrent I/O made any difference. The time
it saved was just about the time it took to set up the links and
produced a net zero savings.
