I built LFS tonight on a kvm VM. Here are a couple of comments:
The total build time was 6.3 hours. The last build (LFS 7.0) on the
same machine, but on the HW was 4.1 hours. That's a 50% increase in
time. I'm not sure why.

I have another reason to dislike fedora. I wanted to look at what
environment variables were used and did a simple 'set' command. I got a
bunch of garbage. Upon investigating, I got about 70 lines of

zlib 1.2.6 seems to have some issues.
