Two more questions:

Are you building 32 or 64bit and how many jvm variants? I built 64bit so only server.

What boot jdk are you using? 32 or 64bit? You haven't accidentally put a debug build there or something? I'm using a 64bit jdk7u something, probably 4 or 7, can't access the machine to check exactly today.

Besides removing Norton 360 I defragged my disk with Auslogics Disk

The disk is 500 mb and about half full.

Someone with a very similar laptop, T430 vs my T500, and a similar disk
does much better, by an hour.  That disk has a 32 MB cache; mine has a
16 MB cache.

Maybe the disk has some sort of failure impacting performance (or the 16
MB cache makes a difference), though it does pass the PCDoctor/Lenovo
diagnostics.  Also it is running in AHCI mode which apparently is
supposed to be better than using Compatibility mode

I have watched this thread for some time. Yes, SSD should be faster
but Pete's build times are just incredibly slow and there must be some
other reason.

I just open my Lenovo t410 (i5 2.6GHz, 8GB RAM, HDD) that has been
asleep for the last two days, mkdir a new directory, run configure and
"make langtools". The time spent is 00:01:05. Even in a VirtualBox
guest inside my Mac Mini (HDD) with source and boot JDK all on the
host, "make langtools" costs me 00:01:29.

And Pete's number (after disable Norton 360) is

     00:04:17 langtools

How can this ever happen?

The JDK source tree is excluded from virus scan.

The source has all the open and closed parts. I ran configure and "make
all" with all default parameters.

Nice to see improvement, but it's still far from where it should be.
For comparison, here are my build times on a similar, but probably
slower, laptop. Lenovo T410, i5 M 520 2.40GHz and 4GB ram, no ssd.
This laptop has no anti virus scanning installed.

Hi Peter,

try perfmon.exe to see where the bottleneck is. Most likely it is
memory or io. If you have the option, go for a SSD drive (you
will get
build times ~10 minutes).

Langtools taking 6 minutes is crazy long. Since there is no
native
code there, #1 would be my first guess.
