Compile Time

[Shonk]

Curious on people's compile time after make clean

I will start the ball rolling with mine

All done in VMware Workstation 10.0.2

2 CPU Core 2 Duo E5300 with VT-X 3.33 Ghz 1333 FSB/RAM 2M L2 = 37 Mins

4 CPU Xeon X5460 3.61 Ghz 1604 FSB/RAM 12M L2 = 25 Mins

This will depend on which firmware you are compiling. The AC56/AC68 will be longer since they must also compile Avahi, Netatalk, etc...

Also, you can enable parallel building to speed up the process (by default I kept it disabled on Github to reduce the risk of compatibility issues).

Thanks

I have already enabled paralell building

mine was with the ac66u

how did you pull the stats

Run the build command like this:

time make rt-ac68u
