Good to know.  I'll fall back on that if neccessary, though I'd much
rather compile locally.

Sure.  I'll take a look next time I run the process.  I'm not sure
exactly how long it runs so I guess I'll have to stare at it for a
while...  All I know is that normally it takes a while for swap to get
cleared out so it looks to me as though it isn't even hitting it.  Is
it possible there is a vm issue here?

I'd appreciate that!
