Hi,

I've just been playing around with different ways to compile
the kernel.  

My, completely simple, measurement of kernel compile time
on a 2.1.5 P-100 are:

ffs /tmp : 7:50 seconds
mfs /tmp : 7:30 seconds (with TMPDIR=/tmp)
cc -pipe : 7:22 seconds

Fairly inconclusive and probably not repeatable.  Anyway,
what I am asking is are there any documented advantages of
using an mfs /tmp??  Is -pipe a better option for compiles??
