well, normal if you build on windows, which seems to have a hamster in a
wheel where real OSes have a highly optimized file system implementation;
unfortunately the hamster easily gets tired  ;)

*especially* true for virus scanners and the like.
if you use one, try to create an exception for your OOo tree so it won't
slow your builds too much.

this is true for a build from scratch, but if you have already built
almost everything then your CPU won't be busy, it's all IO.

the rebuild with a single make process will be a bit faster.
