I have used both versions. The compiled version seems to be more stable on my 
system.

Is there a benefit of compiling Openoffice 2.0 vs. installing from
binary.

I've AMD 1.8Mhz with 1Gb or Ram and it has been compiling OO 2.0 for
7-hours already.

It's likely to take somewhere around 8-11 hours on such a machine. It took somewhere around 10 hours for me on a 1500 MHz Athlon XP with 1 GB RAM.

Whether or not you can benefit from compiling is unknown to me. But it's more fun ;)
