A couple of days ago, I installed current on a Dell that had been an
NT server. Everything works fine except is seems very slow. A make
world on current takes over 5 hours. A little more than my old K6-2
300 laptop.
This is the first SMP kernel I have used but I have disabled it with no
noticable difference in speed.
I'm sure that I am missing something very basic. I have attached my dmesg
and would appreciate any suggestions as to a starting point to speed it up.
Thanks,
