Re: Anon CVS lag

[Michael Zucchi <zucchi zedzone mmc com au>]

Given how long it takes to get everything compiled (and thats when it

downloading modules - its not like it even takes that long on my 28K8,
and flooding my link wont get it anywehre near 2x faster than that.

Go make a coffee or something.
