What makefile/build system r u using ?

I am curious since i did some work on parallel builds and I always wonder how much of this is (easily) transferable to other setups...

A modified version of the standard FreeBSD build, with bsd make. Eg, a script driven 'make -j X buildworld && make -j X buildkernel'

if you had access to a hosted build system, which is x10 faster. lets even assume some sort of transparent gradual sync of your source tree, and the binaries back to your system.

would u find value in such a setup or is it not worth the hassle ?

(lets assume the output is veritably binary-identical to your local build)
