If you think your build is slow, try building it on Windows sometime :-( Well, I re-built ghc from scratch on my PowerBook G4 1.25Ghz with 1Gb of memory. It took somewhere north of 7 hours. The MacBook Pro 2Ghz looks speedy by comparison and 3+ hours look like nothing.
That's way too long. Next time, it might be a good idea to pipe the log file through something that adds timestamps to each line - I've attached a little Haskell program I use for this.
Cheers, Simon
When I use darwinports on my powerbook 1.33GHz and 2GB of RAM is also takes hours and hours and hours. Next time I will try to get a record of exactly how long -- Chris
