You understand that I'm complaining about _compilation_ times, right?

Aside: I do have it on for a few packages where it is obviously a big
win, such as media codecs.

I like the simplicity of this suggestion, but it makes the whole
configuration asymmetric, which doesn't fit with my way of keeping it in
a git repo with branches for the different hosts. The chroot is a
better match for that.
In the meantime, because I have some marginally free CPU resources
available, I tried distcc. I can't get it to work in portage at all; it
fails to create some lockfile due to wrong permissions. It may not be
hard to fix it but it makes me suspect the setup doesn't get much
testing, if any.
