Hi,

I'm running 4.10 on a very old pentium-1:

 CPU: Pentium/P5 (57.58-MHz 586-class CPU)

I have cvsup'ed the sources to 4.11, but I want
to shorten the build world/kernel time.

I have following in my /etc/make.conf:

  CFLAGS= -O -pipe
  NOPROFILE=true
  NO_PF=true
  NO_LPR=true
  NO_MODULES=true
  NO_BLUETOOTH=true
  NO_USB=true
  NO_VINUM=true
  NO_NIS=true
  NOGAMES=true
  NO_BIND=true

This machine will not run a nameserver; it will
query external nameservers for hostname resolution.
Is the "NO_BIND=true" is that case?

I ask this here, because I don't want to compile for
days, and then end up with a not-working world
compilation.

Would you recommend any other make.conf settings?

Thanks,
Rob.
