The ones I listed before also jumped in compile times. As I said tho, I don't know if other things compiling affected that time. Still, it does seem to have increased but I remember when I was on my old single core rig with just a few GBs of memory. As time goes by, software gets bigger therefore takes longer to compile. Yours from the 4th to the 6th in the list sure does increase. That's 8 to 10 times longer roughly. That's a large difference. A true test, emerge something interesting all by itself. See what it comes closest to, the old times or the newer and longer times. I suspect this is changes in features of software and could even be related to gcc or some other tool compiling uses. It is a interesting jump. I don't think you are alone in this. Maybe someone else will post their info. For those interested, genlop -t <package name> is how to get this info. BTW, I don't use systemd so I can't list mine. ;-) Dale :-) :-)
