I have a P-120 w/16MB of ram.  MICO took ~8 hours to compile.  I account
this to the fact that c++ itself takes up 20-30 MB of ram when in use...

I think we should CORBA-fy c++ - we have the client send over the source
code to our GNOME compute server object and the server returns the .o
files, etc.  We will need some method in the client for sending the server
requested system header files and libraries.  Just kidding.
