A dual 300 MHz PII > should do a make world (even with no filesystem optimization options > enabled) in under 2 hours EASILY (unless your /usr/obj is a magneto- uh. in the days i had 486/33 it took some 36 hours to make a world on my eide drive system. i think it got bit better with drive updates, to somewhere around 20 hours. that was in the days of 2.2-current. then i got p75 and it went to 7 hours, then i got p133 and it was 6 and it went down to 5 when i replaced 256 async cache with 512 pipeline. it was already 3.0-current with the pentiums. then i got different setups (at work mostly) and fastest i've seen was a while ago with pro200, 1:20 with ccd:ed filesystems and asyncs. currently my p6/208 (83 bus, ofcourse) makes it around 2 hours with an eide drive and async. scsi pII262.5 (75 bus) wasnt that much faster, even tho the disk is fastest i've seen, WD 9GB UW. soonish i get to benchmark pII 290.5 (83 bus) but not until i get that scsi-to-scsi raid system (onboard uw into which it'll connect) mickey ps. while i'm posting, chat doesnt let me to re-join myself into it, been that way ever since the major crash a while ago To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
