Sorry if this is a bit off topic for this list, but it seem to be a comment that comes up very regularly; please don't top post... I for one prefer top posting, as usually I have read a particular thread enough times that I like to cut to the chase and read the new input without having to scroll

after noticing how large my ports tree grows while compiling, I thought of simply deleting it and do a CVSup to get a new one after the compilation is finished. I, like many, just use the portsclean utility to periodically tidy things up, or after manual ports builds if you forget to do

RE: Hard drive RPM

2007-09-19 Thread Brent Jones
