Well... I noticed my builds when little changed are very slow... and it was due to the computation of version string. Ouch. pavel@amd:~/mainline-altera/linux$ time git describe fixes-for-linus-506-g71ca8691 0.68user 0.22system 27.82 (0m27.820s) elapsed 3.26%CPU pavel@amd:~/mainline-altera/linux$ (Cached it is more reasonable 3 seconds, but it keeps going out of cache all the time. Uncached clean build is 3 minutes, cached is 9 seconds + time to do git describe). Thikpad X60.
