I'm not much of a hacker, and I don't remember the context, but someone
once mentioned using distcc (distributed-computing version of gcc) for
this build-on-beefy-computer-for-older-one scenario; that way, you'd
build the system relatively quickly, and update it just as quickly, if
I'm not mistaken.
(Seems like this is a common task ... is there a FAQ or HOWTO for this
somewhere?)
