I decided to build R, since it’s big but fairly self-contained:
With a 4-processor XP VM, I can’t tell the difference between 1.7.28-2 and 1.7.29s (20140213) in terms of build time. +/- a second or two over about 4.3 CPU-minutes of build time. Configure time doesn’t change much, either.
My nsswitch.conf:
passwd: db
group: db
I’ve tried it with /etc/files present and removed.
Waah.
