= Preparing to test distcc =

In order to test the effect of using distcc for package building, these packages are being set up for a non-mock build:

{|class="mediawiki sortable" border="2"
!Package
!Researcher
!Computer
|-
|crystalspace
|George Popescu
|Australia
|-
|cernlib
|Gajendran Ratnam
|China
|-
|ghdl
|Devashish Mukherji
|India
|-
|gcc
|Rahi Parsi
|Ireland
|}

Meanwhile, [[User:Chris Tyler|Chris]] is working to determine why diveintopython and gimp-help (which are books/manuals) are in the top-4 slowest packages :-)
