Slow is relative. Its a dual core 64-bit machine with 2G of ram. Frankly it goes like a rocket. 'tar xzf ../mozilla.tar.gz . ' in a fresh mozilla tree (550MB of data) takes 33 seconds. (clearly thats single cpu , and benchmarks suck - but there you go). -Rob -- GPG key available at: <http://www.robertcollins.net/keys.txt>.
