Ok. So you've said it took 35 minutes orso for a quad processor Xenon
machine to make world with everything in MFS (except the destination place
for new binaries).
Now, I was really surprised by such a poor results of your tests. I've
tried to build today's RELENG_3 on my machine. Some lusers were working,
but not too hard (some e-mail reading, news reading, irc and such - not
too much or resources used by them).
Look at the result:
>>> elf make world started on Wed Nov 10 17:14:33 CET 1999
>>> elf make world completed on Wed Nov 10 17:57:19 CET 1999
Which's less then 43 minutes. Quite a time considering that's only dual
processor machine. It's a stock source sompilation, without any additional
parameteras, tweaks or somesuch. Plain 'make world -j32' was what I
issued.
BTW, the hardware in question is:
CPU: 2x PIII450 (_NOT_ Xenons)
MB : Tyan Thunderbolt
HDD: da0: <SEAGATE ST34501W 0018> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device
da0: 40.000MB/s transfers (20.000MHz, offset 15, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled
(sources and destination on the same physical disk, softupdates enabled)
The disk was connected to the onboard controller:
ahc0: <Adaptec aic7896/97 Ultra2 SCSI adapter> rev 0x00 int a irq 16 on pci0.11.0
RAM: 512MB (I intetnionally didn't make any MFS tweaks or such).
Hm... makes me wonder how could some of the people on the list say that
the Tyan MBs are not good at all. I once again made myself up that was one
of the best chices i've maid.
