Hi All

I have compiled Perl on a Solaris and a RHEL machine. The compile is MUCH faster on the RHEL machine; however when I start installing the list of Modules I need, the RHEL machine takes significantly longer to install. It seems to get 'stuck' for a while on each module just after the message

On the Solaris machine all the same modules fly past this message. The RHEL sits there after the message for about 5 minutes before continuing :(

It has this 5 or more minute 'pause' again during each install just after a line like this 

/opt/app/release/perl/linux/5.18.2-7/bin/perl /opt/app/release/perl/li
+nux/5.18.2-7/lib/5.18.2/ExtUtils/xsubpp  -typemap /opt/app/release/pe
+rl/linux/5.18.2-7/lib/5.18.2/ExtUtils/typemap -typemap typemap  Perl.
+xs > Perl.xsc && mv Perl.xsc Perl.c

Any ideas why its running so frustratingly slow on these CPAN module installs when doing the same thing on another system (Solaris) is way faster? The RHEL is a much faster server.

thanks!
