If you have access to a server on the net then that can be a good option to compile things. Sometimes I use a server in Germany for some of my Debian development work, I compile the packages there and install them locally. Even the older Hetzner servers are significantly faster than my Thinkpad T61 for anything big and using Hetzner servers allows me to use my EeePC for development work. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
