do you mean you don't do export MAKE="make -j4" $MAKE (here 4 is the number of cores; replace with the correct value for your setup; most modern desktops now have 8, I think) > 8 minutes from a clean build is not impressive IMHO, but perhaps it's > then not the most important piece of the compilation process to improve. > for 20,000 pages?
