Hi Roman,

Could some of this be file system related? Your observation about make running 
slow hints
to many areas, some of which could  be the default file system config.

It would be interesting to run your test(s) in /tmp as part of a
rudimentary investigation into the problem area...

Creating a reproducable test here would be a good start, from which
we can suggest some techniques to identify any areas of difference...

Thanks,

Richard.
