Odd. My 2.8GHz Pentium 4 takes *far* longer to compile OO, something close to |

10h, though I haven't really timed it. |

KDE is in so far better as it doesn't forbit parallel compiling - as OO does. |

So I can use distcc and let all my boxes contribute. That brings the compile |

I am still with 2.6.18. Too many problems with 19. |
