My Sunblade 100 takes almost 20 hours to build gcc with the machine's

software, I usually launch a batch process with the "batch" command.

I just done it in 37 minutes on a Sun T5240, using 'make -j 100'. I could have probably pushed it a bit harder too, as the machine has 128 hardware threads. This used C, C++ and Fortran.

This was for the 'gcc-4.4.1-RC-20090715' snapshot, which I'm going to test, but I doubt gcc 4.4.0 would be too different.
