Optimizing distcc
IceFox writes "Having fallen in love with distcc and its ability to speed up compiling (insert anyone who compiles like Gentoo users or Linux developers). I recently got the chance to dive deeper into distcc. By itself distcc will decrease your build times, but did you know that if you tweak a few things you can get a whole lot better compile times? Through a lot of trial and error, tips from others, profiling, testing and just playing around with distcc, I have put together a nice big article. It shows how developers can get a bigger bang for their buck out of their old computers and distcc with just a few changes."
Yep, root of all evil. strlen. Fix strings and you'll fix everything.
For some reason, "Imagine a beowulf clusters using this" is on-topic.
This is so weird.
I must drink now.

...maybe you should work on disthttpd next?
By the time I read the article, my kdelibs was compiled.
Looks like that server won't be doing much compiling soon...
