I compiled with make -j 12 actually, dual processor madness and all :P

(51 minutes on my Dual Celeron 450s UDMA 33 IDE disks /w SoftUpdates)

I could hear my IDE disks begging for mercy.  

However, I have seen cases where some programs, and kernels wouldn't
compile with the -j or -l (gmake only) options, this is a problem in the
makefile organization, and generally any modern makefile should withstand
being -j ed.
