Wow never spotted that. Something for the FAQ perhaps?

1 day is about how long my Simtec IDE equipped RPC takes to  build the entire
NetBSD world. The rather neat thing about this is that this build time has remained 
much the same even though the full source tree has grown. The only truly scary 
thing is that this is the amount of time that mozilla takes to compile as well.
