Which compiler version are you using ? A full kernel compile takes just
above 7 minutes on my 233 MHz 750 (MVME2400, 1Mb L2 cache but running at a
slow 93 MHz, I suspect Motorola got the L2 setup wrong ) with root and
everything NFS mounted and 32 Mb of RAM (no swap).

Are you sure the L2 cache is enabled ?
