I've recently done 11 months worth of updates on this box and have about 40
hours of build time on it in the last 10 days. I want to use it, not watch
more text fly by on the console.
Try compiling it at a lower priority.
I just put this in my /etc/make.conf file:
PORTAGE_NICENESS=19
Compiling a new proggie slows the system down a little bit, but
I can still run anything I want and use my system while building
something else to play with.
