Ok. So I tried building the squeeze branch of T(A)ILS [1]. Here is what "time lh build" reports: - in tmpfs : real 9m31.897s user 9m27.891s sys 1m35.566s - without tmpfs, on an encrypted filesystem over 2 SATA hard disks in a RAID-1 array (please note the CPU is not so much used during most of the build, so I doubt the encryption is a significant parameter here): real 64m18.963s user 9m29.552s sys 1m56.151s Quite convincing, uh?
