I was using Gentoo over two decades ago, compiling on an Athlon XP (not sure which model). Single core, well less than 2GHz.
If it was manageable back then, surely it’s no big deal by now with a modern multi-core CPU – even a low-end one, let alone something like a $300 16-core Ryzen 5950X.
What if my favourite are Gentoo’s but I don’t want to spend years of my life waiting for my OS to compile from source?
Overnight chronjobs?
Buy a faster CPU.
😭
