Hello list,
On this box I have this:
# grep '\-j' /etc/portage/make.conf
EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--jobs --load-average=4 [...] "
MAKEOPTS="-j4 -l4"
That seems to work well, except for a 20s period at the beginning of emerging
qtwebengine, during which CPU load goes to 100%, according to gkrellm.

There's a worse aspect: you have to undersand what you're doing. Or you can
just tell your firewall not to allow any IPv6 packets in or out at all.

It would be good if a stage-3 tarball were available with profile 23.x built

its own partition) to a chroot on my workstation. I mount all the partitions
on both server and workstation. Then when I chroot, env-update hangs for ever.
Well, over an hour anyway.
Is it possible to

Not only that, but judicious use of colour would help a great deal. Having
