I tested -pa53 on smp on J5k building kernels (make -j4), built 115,
here's a sample start/stop time. 
Start: Sat Jul 13 19:23:25 PDT 2002

It is just apt-get update and samba (so far) that kill it.  Just did a cvs
update, worked fine.  I wonder what it is about apt-get that kills it.  
Can someone else with a J5k test this?  Running a current 2.4.18 smp
kernel and running apt-get update.
