Hi All.
I'm considering upgrading my K6-2 400 to a K6-3 450
because I keep hearing that the 256kb of L2 cache
on the K6-3 can practically double the performance
in certain situations. My K6-2 has no L2 cache.
What I'm really after is faster compilation.
I would like to be able to build -current in under
12 hours, for instance.
Should I save up for a fast Duron system instead?
