Thanks for the more detailed information. This is basically output I'm 
getting as I go through the Packages collection, compiling everything so 
that Dreamcast will have some of the same resources as other, larger ports. 
Knowing that this is a problem of swap over the network, and also knowing 
that I'm not really in a position to tweak my compiler options -- I couldn't 
very well comb through /usr/pkgsrc/* for this issue and fix every occurance 
 -- it looks like I'll just have to deal with the lag time. Of course, just 
knowing that it's not some odd system failure, but just extreme slowness of 
swap over NFS, I'll feel better about letting these things run for obscene 
amounts of time.
