Ok, I'm probably going to be getting a buildbox soon. I want to know what I should buy. All you people running FreeBSD out there: Could you please run `time make buildworld`and post the results below, along with a description of your hardware?

Funny, I was just doing a run last night. I didn't get the sys+user breakdown, but the total buildworld took 51 minutes, 2 seconds.
Celeron 1000 MHz, 384MB RAM, 5400 rpm 30GB IDE drive (UDMA100).
Not exactly a killer system but it's not for frontline use.

Thanks; the reason I'd like to see them is to know how I/O bound the build is -- if the sum of user and sys times is much less than the real time, that means it probably spent lots of time waiting for disk.
