I just compiled newLISP on a quad-core machine. It took...4 seconds!
This is a case where it's actually faster to compile than to install from a repo.
Update: Thanks to the comment below, I can do it even faster:
1. Download the newLISP source:
http://newlisp.nfshost.com/downloads/
2. Extract the archive.
3. cd into newlisp-x.x.x
4. ./configure-alt
5. make -j 4
6. (As root) make install
Steps 4-6 took about 10 seconds.

Can you try ./configure-alt instead of ./configure?
Lutz included it in the main distro. I designed it so you wouldn't need to alter the Makefile, it should "just work". Please let me know how it works for you!
Hi Ted,
Sure, I'll give it a try, but it will be this weekend or Monday.
I'll post my results here as I prefer to remain anonymous. Sorry if that's a hassle for you.
Thanks for your work with newLISP!
@Ted
I just tried ./configure-alt and it works. I've edited the post.
