5 I have to disagree. On my laptop Dell Inspiron 6400, Dual Core Pentium
6 (T2130) 1.8 GHz,
7 2 GB RAM, 160 GB HD. The compile time is absolutely OK. Important is
8 that the feature
9 "ccache" in make.conf is enabled and MAKEOPTS has a reasonable value, I
10 have set it
11 to "-j2". I follow the rule MAKEOPTS=<number CPUS>. But in the case of
12 openoffice, the
13 ebuild overwrite this value with "-j1". For the version 2.3.x I had set
14 the variable
15 WANT_MP but with version 2.4 it breaks the build. But how you can see
16 in the following,
17 that's only a minor problem.
