Hi, what's taking so long when emerging packages despite distcc is used?
I have disallowed compiling on the local machine (which is the one emerge is running on) through distcc settings because the local machine is relatively slow. Yet I can see some gcc processes running on the local machine, and emerging goes painfully slow. Using distcc doesn't seem to make it any faster, though disabling local compiling seems to help a bit. Some compilations are being run on the remote machine, so distcc does work. The log file on the remote machine shows compilation times of a few milliseconds up to about 1.5 seconds at most. The distcc server would be finished with the emerging within maybe 15 minutes, and the client takes several hours already. Is there something going wrong? Is there a way to speed things up as much as I would expect from using distcc?
