Well, now I have just finished compiling a 2.6.12-rc3-mm2 kernel for my
PowerPC machine and here is the time it took to compile it (*after* the
sources were already uncompressed and I was using a good enough .config
file so that make-kpgk made all the work by itself):

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
real	87m53.845s
user	72m22.279s
sys	11m12.328s
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I guess that with times like this, my request for 168-pin 5V EDO DIMM cards
(going to the trash or otherwise unused) still stands.  :-/


Thanks, Rogério Brito.
