I really had 2 points: 1) Dual Celeron's do work pretty well given a good workload

I agree, I'm quite happy with mine :)

2) Your assertion that we need more memory bandwidth to go much faster on the buildworld - I disagree, or at least I think we have not wrung all the SMP performance out of build world that we should. One big problem with make -j N is that it does ok at parallelizing the compile of large subdirectories with lots of C modules since it starts many compiles at once. <SNIP>

Excellent point, I've noticed this, too, I hope these changes can be eventually commited as this is definatly holding my system back. I see my second CPU go idle for good chunks of time while its linking something.

Glad to see someone hacking into the problem.
