I believe that gcc for instance starts to compile itself pretty quickly, so I don't think distcc and crosscc will help. I do think distcc/crosscc has helped zeus and poseidon continue to be productive. > Some packages are built quite regularly like bouml, which takes some days to > build.

We'd just need to figure out what they should be. I've watched zsh-dev buildd three times while we still have packages which haven't built since gcc-defaults got updated (Dec. 28). -- Stephen R.
