How long does it take you to compile wine?

He he, I think I hold the record.

(1) This one is missing Esd, NAS, Jack and Valgrind (memcheck.h) 
support. However in other tests this does not seem to make much 
difference. It's also the only one with a different distribution and gcc 
version which makes comparisons tricky.

(2) This is actually my main development machine. And damn, it's slow! I 
hope to retire it soon but it still hurts. I guess part of the reason 
for it being so slow is that it's never really idle. There's always half 
a dozen Firefox windows around, gkrellm, xmms, a bunch of background 
processes like MythTV, MySQL, software RAID 1, 90% full disks, etc.

(3) This is with 1 job on the Athlon 2600+ and 2 on the Athlon 1800+.


I tried getting Wine 2002 to compile but even in my Debian 3.1 chroot 
and with gcc 2.95 it wouldn't. So we don't have a good point of 
comparison.

           If it stinks, it's chemistry. If it moves, it's biology.
                  If it does not work, It's computer science.
