Re: FOSDEM thoughts
I'm suprised that network I/O was that slow; using distcc (especially
with -j2 options passed to dpkg-buildpackage) have drastically sped up
builds; the files themselves are small, usually a few kilobytes round
trip. Then again, the files are going through tap0 on my machines so
YMMV.
