OOo has just got to be the most fscked-up ebuild I've ever seen.

My old 2600+ MD Barton machine often took 18 hours to build (!)

So now I use OOo-bin, just don't try doing other intensive work 
while "deploying" it. Here's what happens:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ genlop -t openoffice-bin
 * app-office/openoffice-bin

     Fri Nov  9 09:27:59 2007 >>> app-office/openoffice-bin-2.3.0
       merge time: 50 seconds.

     Fri Jan  4 12:06:03 2008 >>> app-office/openoffice-bin-2.3.1
       merge time: 35 minutes and 51 seconds.

     Wed Apr  2 20:59:25 2008 >>> app-office/openoffice-bin-2.4.0
       merge time: 1 hour, 5 minutes and 12 seconds.

The emerge in April also had two other emerges going at the same time - 
a world update and a complete e17 rebuild. Nothing else showed a 6000% 
increase in deploy time though....

Weird, huh?
