Aaargh!

Even on a 12 or 16 MB 68030/25MHz, I'd rather use mfs as /tmp... and
btw, if you have less then about that, you should make sure to separate
paging space from /usr onto different disks (not partitions), and both
of them should be fast.

With 16 MB of RAM, I've managed to have gcc consume 95% cpu-time on
average, without -pipe. I don't really dare to try -pipe yet.
