On a athlon 900 with 512 MB RAM it takes about 30 minutes for a full
build, but only for the first run. On the second run it takes about 3-4
minutes :). Ok, i'm using ccache and it realy paid out during my
-DSTRICT work. The cache hit rate had varied between 30% and 80%,
depending what i've done. You get 30% - 40% hitrate for normal updates
from cvs without doing a "make clean".

I've thought about buying a new computer before i started to use ccache.
With ccache i'll wait for the Hammer.
