Using those CFLAGS (athlon-mp instead of xp...typo), I did a base install of Gentoo. The bootstrap took 49 minutes. The 'emerge system' took 50 minutes. I love this system! :)

I'm installing Gentoo on a dual Athlon MP 2200 system that I just built. What CFLAGS are other people with this type of hardware using? <http://www.freehackers.org/gentoo/gccflags/flag_gcc3.html> recommends:

CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"

Are these good enough? This machine will be a production server, so nothing overly agressive. Thanks.
