Operating System:	FreeBSD AHA2.1.5
/etc/make.conf tweaks:
			CFLAGS= -O -pipe
			NOPROFILE=      true
			NOMANCOMPRESS=  true
			SHARED=         copies
Motherboard:		ASUS PCI/I-P6NP5 (Intel Natoma Chipset)
CPU:			Intel KB80521EX200 SY007 256K (Pentium Pro-200/256K)
Memory:			32 or 64MB 60nS FPM using 2 SIMMS
SCSI Controller:	Adaptec 2940U
Disk:			Micropolis MC4421 2G, 3.5"x1" 5400RPM 8.8mS, 512k

About 1:59 wall clock, and the machine is heavly I/O bound.  I am sure this
time could be reduced >15% by using a 3 spindle ``make world'' engine,
one disk for running binaries (and install target), one disk for the source
tree, and one disk for /usr/obj store.

People quoting compilation times should include details similiar to
the above, otherwise they are meaningless numbers...
