I also have this problem, and while being on a local disk rather than NFS helps, it doesn't help all that much. For large projects, I usually have time to get a cup of coffee while linking (admittedly only four doors away, but...). When on NFS, I have time to go to the local coffeehouse... - Hal _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
