Andy,
Can you take a look at ticket

I was going to go ahead and fix it, but wanted to wait for you to get
back from vacation to discuss.

In Inkscape-0.48.2, compiling with Glib 3.2 or greater should be
compiling with Glib 2.32 or greater.
I'll get that as a part of my next commit.

The number of hotspot and langtools failures are the same as DJ's, but I
got 136 failures in the jdk where DJ only got 78. In particular, I got
28 failures in com/sun/jdi/ where DJ got none.
Hmm...JDI is the debug interface. I don't have an immediate explanation
for that.

The other interesting feature about timings is how measurable they
are.
Umm, how *repeatable* they are.
Of course there will be some variations, even on the same machine, due
to other activities, caching, etc.
I just want to share some things I've found out about ssd drives.
I installed the ssd drive as /dev/sdc and created a gpt partition table
with parted. The fist partition, /dev/sdc1, is about 11G.
I created a ext4 filesystem and mounted as /mnt/ssd.
Next I created the root directories: bin,

I don't think putting /boot on the ssd would make much of a difference.
From the time I hit enter in grub to the time the kernel messages
start is a second or less.

Overall, I think the results would be more robust if you could run

OK, here are some results:

I decided to explore using an ssd drive. I purchased a 40G Intel SSD
and so far it works well with SVN-20120514.
I created a GPT partition table with a 10G partition using parted and
formatted as ext4.
The performance seems to be good. htparm gives me about 230 GB/s which
is more than twice

Looking at nss, the intro says:

test suite)
* Estimated build time: 1.0 SBU (at least an additional 3.5 SBU to run
the test suite)
