@Bruce, so maybe it is timing. Maybe it is timing combined with the type of
processor. You use a i7 and I use an AMD Phenom II 965. Your SBU's are also
about 60% compared to my machine.

  Interesting.  My phenom is still using gcc-4.8 (I bought it for
building development versions of the books, but it is running out of
partitions - that is down to details of my backup process : rsync
over nfs to a staging area on my server, then create something akin
to generation data groups for the real backups on a different
filesystem [ยน]  and isn't going to change in the near future).

Partitions or disk space? If you use gpt, it can create 128 partitions by default and more if you really want to.

I've also got a desktop AMD A4 ("trinity APU") which only has two
cores.  Mostly, that box is not used for development and at the
moment it is running old LFS's (7.4 or older) and old stable
kernels.

Obviously not a development system any more, but that's what I am using now.
