I looked at how long some packages are taking these days. I noticed that |
2 |
firefox and chromium take a lot longer to emerge than was the case 3-4 years |
3 |
ago. For example: |
4 |
|
5 |
# genlop -t www-client/firefox |
6 |
* www-client/firefox |
7 |
|
8 |
Sat Dec 18 17:19:14 2010 >>> www-client/firefox-3.6.13 |
9 |
merge time: 1 minute and 16 seconds. |
10 |
[snip ...] |
11 |
|
12 |
Sat Jun 14 22:37:43 2014 >>> www-client/firefox-24.6.0 |
13 |
merge time: 54 minutes and 59 seconds. |
14 |
|
15 |
|
16 |
# genlop -t www-client/chromium |
17 |
* www-client/chromium |
18 |
|

Sat Aug 6 09:44:27 2011 >>> www-client/chromium-13.0.782.107-r1 |
20 |
merge time: 30 minutes and 52 seconds. |

Sat Jun 14 21:42:44 2014 >>> www-client/chromium-35.0.1916.153 |
24 |
merge time: 1 hour, 34 minutes and 49 seconds. |
25 |
|
26 |
|
27 |
I am wondering if something in my configuration is causing this, rather than |
28 |
my laptop getting older for the continuously evolving and perhaps more |
29 |
demanding (in terms of resources to compile) software code. Have you noticed |
30 |
something similar? |
