For the curious ones the machine is a 2001 IBM Thinkpad T22 with 20Gb of HDD, 256 Mb of RAM and an Intel Pentium 3 @ 900MHz.

Serious question, how long will it take to compile the whole thing if you had a ryzen 9 maxed out or an Intel i9 or whatevet those crazy CPUs are with all top specs PC?
I have a laptop with a Ryzen 4700u and gentoo with KDE compiles in a virtual machine in like 2 hours iirc
My IBM took 1h30m to compile vim.... (:
Is there a particular reason why you prefer Gentoo over other distros? Can't you run a conventional distro that doesn't need to compile? Just curious, no judgement. I know that Marcan, the dude who reverse engineered the apple M1, runs Gentoo. Always been curious as to why some folks prefer it
I dont use gentoo, I was just messing around with it out of curiosity
