I would suggest -- in order to move the present discussion on -- that you try using various methods to speed up an ARM build of (eg) glibc. distcc, some sort of demo cross-compilation, etc. What works, what doesn't work, what needs more work?
Distcc suffers from a fatal flaw: You can't reproduce the build. Transient failures and corruption cannot be tracked down. We've done lots of experimentation with distcc, even using distcc + a cross compiler. It does great stuff to build time performance, but it sacrifices build integrity for performance and that's not an acceptable condition for PA.
