I agree. I have noticed that for general emerge operations, about 1GHz of processor power will be able to hit the I/O bandwith cap on my fastest drives. In other words, I don't think lots of the time spent withh portage -- on modern systems -- is on the processor. You'd have better results -- and an easier time -- if you optimized the FS for Portage, I would imagine. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
