You can find a lot of kernel compile time information on Athlon vs
Pentium, eg:
<http://www.linuxhardware.org/features/01/07/13/145249.shtml>
IIRC in most tests I've seen, Athlon is better at compiling the kernel
and cheaper as well.
For reference, on my P3 1GHz laptop, i686-pc-linux-gnu bootstrap for
"c,ada" takes 45 minutes, "ada,c,c++,f77" takes 1 hour,
gnatlib_and_tools is an additional 5 minutes. For "c,c++,f77", make
check is 45 minutes, and ACATS is 35 minutes.
Hope this helps,
