How long does it take *you* to build wine?

Summary of wall clock time from clean "time make" for 20021125:

dk, gcc2.94, debian 3.0:
  8 min      : dual 1.4GHz P4 Xeon, 512 MB RAM, 256KB L2 cache each

dk, gcc3.2, red hat 8.0:
  16min  1sec: distcc with dual 650MHz, 750MHz laptop, and a 1.1GHz celeron
  17min 21sec: dual 650MHz PIII,   400 MB RAM, 256KB L2 cache each, 7200RPM disk
  19min      : 1.4GHz Athlon,      256 MB RAM, 256KB L2 cache
  30min      : 750MHz PIII laptop, 400 MB RAM

mf, ?
  16m56s     : 1.8 GHz P4

ms, ?
  30min      : 900MHz athlon,      512 MB RAM
  "much faster than this with ccache -- was going to buy new motherboard, now I'll wait"

bm, gcc2.95rh, red hat 7.3:
  47m0s      : 450MHz Celeron,     128MB

jm, gcc3.2
  47m41s     : 550MHz athlon,      192 MB Ram

tl, ?:
  180m       : 300MHz Pentium II,  96 MB RAM

am, ?
  >>> 180m   : 133MHz Pentium I,   64 MB RAM

My impressions --
* gcc2.9x is probably a fair bit faster than gcc3.2
* ccache is a win
* distcc is only a win if you have several equally fast machines
* athlons don't do quite as well as their clock speed would indicate
* dual processors go twice as fast as single processors (imagine that)
