Hello,

I tried to compile on that Compaq Prolinea. I was going to compile the NetBSD 4.0 GENERIC kernel. It took ~40sec to run config and ~10490sec (that's 2hours, 54min, and 50sec!!!) to run make depend!

I am seriously wondering how much of this is because it is a 50MHz CPU and how much is because of the anemic hard drive that it has. That hard drive is pathetic! It took hours upon hours to process ~250MB (that's right megabytes, not gigabytes!) - over 4 hours to untar and over 4 hours to delete!
