I'm sure it depends on lots of factors and our worlds probably
don't even match.

I intend to eventually plot the numbers I've collected over the years
(mainly to have a baseline for ZFS tuning) but so far I haven't and
just looked at the first and last ones:

I agree that it "feels" worse, though.

Disclaimer: These aren't "benchmark" results, I didn't create them in
single-user mode and various relevant factors vary. I also didn't run
the numbers through ministat and don't intend to either.

I'm using a Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5870 @ 2.00GHz and don't remember
ever being able to compile world in a few minutes. The bottle
neck on my system seems to be the puny 2 GB of RAM the linker
has to share with ZFS.

At least I can still buildworld without first attaching an USB
stick for additional swap space which is necessary for Firefox ...
