You can have 32 cores in your machine but it doesn't help when half the packages you want to build end up being a single-threaded task. > Personally, I would not have an issue with the stage3 not having an editor, > but it would make installing Gentoo more difficult considering there are > some files that need to be edited.

Having an editor at install time is a no-brainer. -- Rich
