It depends on the kernel settings. I have a Phenom II 1090T (6-core) processor and it takes hours from a make clean to a complete install. Most of that time the processor is fully loaded. But, I'm building a BIG kernel, like slackwares Huge.s. For a small embedded device it would take much less time. As for what kernel config the stat was garnered from, I don't know. I think I'll try to find it and then see how long it takes on my system. The I can post back my results.
Hello, perhaps I can be of some small use. I learned python3 as my first language. I was not sure what to do. Linux was great, flowers were blooming, and the whole world was friendly and inviting, albeit complex. I choose to learn C, I was and still am, interested in the Linux kernel. Don't you think it's so cool?! Anyways, long story short, I still have not yet made any contributions. It's only been 2 years since I started learning C, and I decided that before I tried contributing to any real Linux project, I had an obligation to see to it that I coded well. You may view my long and arduous task that I've set about as foolish or not so, but in either case, hindsight and a bug in openssl has shown me that I am at least a responsible developer. I have in the mean time created many "pet" projects that have made my life easier. I have learned an enormous amount in doing so. And I am soon to release an alpha version of a secure skype program. Ultimately, you will decide your own destiny, but here is my advice to you, passed down through several generations, "Discover what you're capable of." and another one, more learned from experience than anything else, "If it's complicated or difficult. If it's labeled as `If you don't know what FOO means you don't need it,` learn it; for everyone else is learning the easy stuff, and who shall challenge the clever and the rich, who shall set anew the boundaries of the known universe and pull down the multiplicative verbosity of the fool, if not you, then who, for surly you would not expect more willingness in others then in yourself, O mortal man?" (Please forgive the assumption, I can't really think of a good sounding nondescriptive noun for that sentence.) And, you are welcome.
