I can't speak for the merit of your idea or implementation, but here's |
2 |
an idea for you... portage should keep track of how long it has taken |
3 |
in the past to merge various packages on the current machine and use |
4 |
that as an indicator for how long it will take to build the current |
5 |
package. This cache could be preloaded with guesstimated numbers if |
6 |
you want, but the nice thing is that it would be customized to the |
7 |
local machine's typical performance on a per-package basis, and |
8 |
wouldn't require continued network access to function. |
