I have a P4-2.4GHz laptop. |

I forgot to say that the estimation time was made by genlop. And was quite |
28 |
wrong! It took something like 11h to compile 112 packages, (though I've |
29 |
interrupted while compiling gcc-3.3.6.. so it had to restart it anew). From |
30 |
this, I don't know if I should trust genlop anymore.. or is there something |
31 |
to configure so that it is more accurate? |
32 |
|
33 |
Just for the record, the migration to gcc-3.4.4 went just fine.. until now |
34 |
at least. :) |
