CPUS=1 is probably my friend here.
Building some source is probably not so bad if you use the "source + built packages" distribution. Then, you're justing building the C core, and all the Racket code and documentation is pre-built. For a smaller install, try the Minimal Racket "source + built packages" distribution, then install the packages that you need. Again, the packages should install in built form, so installation should be quick. ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
