I recently discovered
emerge --jobs 8 --load-average 8
instead of justmake -j8
. Not gonna help much on a 900MHz pentium, but it has really sped up my build times.I have to set -j1 because of low ram. Yes I can just increase swap space to "add more RAM" but it will be swap on a 2001 HDD so it's slow as hell
