this was my noob starting point.

Wow, this *really* makes a difference.  I would have thought it might 
have halved the time, to about 2 hours.  On the same hardware, with just 
2 cpus, instead of 1, it takes only 1 hour.  Is this superlinear 
decrease in compile time typical?  (At least when going from 1 to 2 
processors?)

        I -imagine- that most of the speedup came from ccache :-) And that
gives a huge, but somewhat unpredictable speedup - depending which
headers change - clearly with ccache you only do the pre-processing.

        HTH,

                Michael.
