I'm not too concerned about build times for large packages. The
machine isn't going to be connect to a network and once it's
in a "working" state won't be doing much emerging.

Secondly, I've never had much luck with distcc.  When I last
tried it (admittedly a couple years ago), I immediately started
tripping over packages that wouldn't build using distcc.
