[ale] Upgrading 2.6 kernel

[Christopher Fowler]

I just compiled my kernel and kept time:

bzImage:

real    6m6.233s
user    5m2.062s
sys     0m38.898s

modules:

real    24m33.403s
user    21m42.767s
sys     2m24.339s

This is on an AMD XP 3000.  The compile took place on a ramdisk.
After all that I only have 300k in swap spaced used.
