I agree. It's a pain. We have configured it to only compile the server
(not all the libraries and applications) but that's still 1/2 hour on a
PIII-550. We'd like to figure out how to limit this to smaller chunks,
but we haven't done all the work/documentation to figure it out.

You don't really need to do everything. You could just cd to the top
level and do a 'make World' then wait for it to start compiling parts of
the tree. (It starts by compiling a few bootstrap programs, then it does
a clean, make includes and make depend, then starts compiling) Once
that's done stop it, go to the GL directory and do a make. That should
be substantially quicker.
