I'm currently doing a buildworld on a 'AMD Enhanced Am486DX4
Write-Through' CPU (reported by BIOS as 120MHz 486) with 16MB RAM,
with a very slow and small hard disk (/usr/src and /usr/obj are NFS
mounted over 10Mb Ethernet, so the hard disk is probably used mostly for
swapping).

I can't remember what time I started it but kern.boottime is Sat May 27
18:03:41 2000, so it can't have been earlier than that.  It's now Sun 28
May 2000 14:13:21 BST, and it's nearly finished, so I'm guessing it will
take less than 24 hours even on this hardware.
