On a 2.4 GHz i7-4700MQ laptop with 16 GB of RAM (sorry Stan!), "make deb-pkg" using an unmodified distribution config takes about 55 minutes. IIRC, on a netbook's Atom (I've forgotten the exact processor, but it was a second generation Acer netbook), the same compilation took 6 or 7 hours. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
