Gentoo - compile time

How long does it take to compile foo?

One of the most common gentoo questions is: How long does it take to compile a package and its dependencies?

First you will have to figure out what exactly will be compiled. The is done with '-p'. E.g. 'emerge -p kde'. When you have the list of packages that will be compiled you simply have to figure out the time each package takes to compile.

You can roughly estimate that the time depends on you CPU-speed. There is some disk i/o at the start of the compile and some disk i/o in the end. Mostly these are small compared to the time the CPU spends.

To make it possible to use the same data for different CPU-speeds we define a GIns as the number of instructions that a 1 GHz CPU executes within a second. This is roughly 1.000.000.000 instructions. So a 1 GHz CPU will take 1 second to execute 1 GIns while a 500 MHz CPU will take 2 seconds and a 2 GHz CPU will take 0.5 seconds.

Here are my meassurement for compiling packages. Some of them are compiles several times which shows that these numbers are not entirely constant (E.g. qt. This is cause by an upgrade from version 2 to version 3).
