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."
not frist post.
Jeez, you're dumb. Why would you post a link to your own server to Slashdot if it couldn't handle the traffic? What a worthless article.
Just a general question here. /.ed?
has slashdot ever been
is that even possible?
(how much do you wanna bet that this post will be classed "offtopic"
Thank you for reposting the article which I was unable to see. To whomever moderated it as "redundant", well, read the moderator guidelines.
Great, but try posting anonymously next time instead of karma whoring.
I think the other guy beat mine by a few seconds. My post should be modded down redundant accordingly. I'd rather only see one copy anyways.
Since you are being so magnanimous why not post the original as AC next time instead of Karma Whoring. With such a low userid you should really know better.
I know you geeks are just creaming in your pants now.
... We're thrilled for Seth, we're thrilled for his fans, and to be honest we're thrilled for our teenage kids who threatened to emancipate themselves if we didn't figure out a way to bring the show back."
LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) Fueled by DVD sales and strong ratings for its reruns, the animated series "Family Guy" is going back into production -- more than two years after the last original episode aired. FOX, which had the series originally, has an option to air the episodes first; the Cartoon Network, the show's current home, will also air them. The new episodes -- at least 22 will be produced -- will be ready by spring 2005.
"I'm just incredibly excited that we're back in business on 'Family Guy,'" creator Seth MacFarlane says in a statement. "Now all those crazy kids who've been hounding me to bring the show back can stop bothering me and move onto more serious matters -- like saving 'Coupling.'"
The resurrection of "Family Guy," which was never a hit on FOX and last aired an original episode in February 2002, owes a lot to fan reaction in the show's afterlife.
The DVD compilation of seasons 1 and 2 of the show was the top-selling TV title on DVD last year; that and the more recent third-season DVD set have sold more than 2 million copies combined. It has also become a hit in Cartoon Network's "Adult Swim" late-night lineup, often beating CBS' "Late Show" and NBC's "Tonight Show" among young males.
"This is incredibly exciting for everyone at Fox," says Gary Newman, president of 20th Century Fox TV, which produces the series. "The overwhelming response to 'Family Guy' this past year is a real tribute to Seth's vision and talent.
"Family Guy" bounced around the FOX schedule numerous times in its three-year run. In its final season, airing opposite "Friends" and "Survivor" on Thursday nights, it averaged 4.7 million viewers. (The current occupant of that spot for FOX, "Tru Calling," brings in 4.4 million viewers.)

Please learn the difference between 'than' and 'then'. Really.
Other 'then' that, great stuff. Very useful.
He thought he could survive a ./ with a php generated page? That reduces the throughput by what 10 times.
I'm pretty sure the Slashdot consensus already determined that packages are better than building. There was an Ask Slashdot on this today and we all decided. So why would anyone compile?
/makes no sense.
