I'm definitely doing a 'make clean'. I remember when I was testing
stability I had a loop going that just did
'make clean ; time make -j 2 bzImage'
over and over again. I saw many 1:56's and even a few 1:54's.
I did notice that '-j 2' is faster for me than 3 or higher. You might
actually be hurting your compile time with the higher -j values.
Someone here has already said that 5 minutes is about normal for a
single PII500. I get about 4:30 on my UP PII450 and 4:06 on a UP PIII450.
Red Hat 6.1 and 6.0 using egcs 1.1.2.
Of course, until we start comparing .config files, we'll see quite a bit
of variation.
