i3, i5, i7 benchmarks building wine-1.6.2

[Dan Kegel]

Hi folks,
in case anyone's wondering how fast a cheap computer builds wine these
days, I did a little benchmark on the family computers.

The benchmark was:

$ sudo apt-get build-dep wine
$ apt-get source wine
$ cd wine1.6-1.6.2/
$ time debuild -b -uc -us
$ dh clean
$ time debuild -b -uc -us -j4

Results:

I'll probably semi-retire the ol' i7 and replace it with another ts140 soon,
partly to save power, and partly to beef up my LAN party capabilities :-)

(My new house has been averaging 22 kwh/day lately; switching from the
i7 to the i3
will save something like 0.5 kwh/day on days when I work at home.   Hope to
add solar panels and go carbon-neutral sometime, but gotta fix the chimneys,
replace furnaces with heat pumps, insulate, and replace the roof first.)
