it says memory usage for compiles never went above 60MB, so if kde was
compiled as part of the tests then --enable-final definitely wasn't used.
I turned off distcc for kde due to it using --enable-final, it is noted as a
problem in the distcc FAQ [0]and I found it increased compile times here, and
it even caused prometheus to timeout (30 min timeouts) during any kde compile
on my pII 300 cluster.
If you want distcc then add a configure option to every spell that uses
- --enable-final so those of us with experience of the problem can still
either
turn of distcc or --enable-final or both.
