-  <!--
-  <para>Many people would like to know beforehand approximately how long
-  it takes to compile and install each package. Because Linux From
-  Scratch can be built on many different systems, it is impossible to
-  provide accurate time estimates.  The biggest package (Glibc) will
-  take approximately 20 minutes on the fastest systems, but could take
-  up to three days on slower systems! Instead of providing actual times,
-  the Static Build Unit (SBU) measure will be
-  used instead.</para>
-
-  <para>The SBU measure works as follows. The first package to be compiled
-  from this book is the statically-linked Binutils in <xref
-  linkend="chapter-temporary-tools"/>.  The time it takes to compile
-  this package is what will be referred to as the Static Build Unit
-  or SBU. All other compile times will be expressed relative to this
-  time.</para>
-
-  <para>For example, consider a package whose compilation time is 4.5
-  SBUs. This means that if a system took 10 minutes to compile and
-  install the static Binutils, it will take
-  <emphasis>approximately</emphasis> 45 minutes to build this example
-  package. Fortunately, most build times are shorter than the one
-  for Binutils.</para>
-
-  <para>Please note that if the system compiler on the host is GCC-2.x based, the
-  SBUs listed may be somewhat understated. This is because the SBU is
-  based on the very first package, compiled with the old GCC, while the
-  rest of the system is compiled with the newer GCC-&gcc-version; (which is
-  known to be approximately 30 percent slower). SBUs are also not
-  highly accurate for Symmetric Multi-Processor (SMP)-based machines.</para>
-
-  <para>In general, SBUs are not entirely accurate because they depend on many
-  factors, including the host system's version of GCC. Note that on Symmetric
-  Multi-Processor (SMP)-based machines, SBUs are even less accurate.  They are
-  provided here to give an estimate of how long it might take to install a
-  package, but the numbers can vary by as much as dozens of minutes in some
-  cases.</para>
-
-  <para>To view actual timings for a number of specific machines, we recommend
-  <ulink url="&lfs-root;~bdubbs/"/>.</para>
