9 It's possible, but the OOo build disables multiple processing unless you
10 set WANT_MP=1, so distcc would have to do everything on the other box.
11 Cross-compiling a package on the other box may be a simpler solution.
12 Sleeping during the compile is even easier :)

14 Although compiling OOo takes a long time, it's not as though there is any
15 urgency about it. The machine, and the old version of OOo, is still
16 usable during compilation.
