In follow up to some recent emails on gcc build time, I used the time command this morning to monitor the time needed to build gcc-3.1 on a 2 GHz Dual Xeon machine at the office. Here is the breakdown:
configure took 3 minutes, 14 seconds make bootstrap took 44 minutes, 28 seconds make install took 1 minute, 58 seconds Why I included seconds in those totals I don't know. I was just building the c++,c and f77 components of gcc. I was careful about when I did this build, there is a mandated automatic anti-virus scan at a certain time every day, and boy, does that slow things down...
