-<title>About SBUs</title>

-<para>Many people would like to know beforehand approximately how long
-it takes to compile and install each package. Because Linux From
-Scratch can be built on many different systems, it is impossible to
-provide accurate time estimates. The biggest package (Glibc) will
-take approximately 20 minutes on the fastest systems, but could take
-up to three days on slower systems! Instead of providing actual times,
-the Standard Build Unit (SBU) measure will be
-used instead.</para>
-
-<para>The SBU measure works as follows. The first package to be compiled
-from this book is Binutils in <xref linkend="chapter-temporary-tools"/>. The
-time it takes to compile this package is what will be referred to as the
-Standard Build Unit or SBU. All other compile times will be expressed relative
-to this time.</para>
-
-<para>For example, consider a package whose compilation time is 4.5
-SBUs. This means that if a system took 10 minutes to compile and
-install the first pass of Binutils, it will take
-<emphasis>approximately</emphasis> 45 minutes to build this example package.
-Fortunately, most build times are shorter than the one for Binutils.</para>
-
-<para>In general, SBUs are not entirely accurate because they depend on many
-factors, including the host system's version of GCC. Note that on Symmetric
-Multi-Processor (SMP)-based machines, SBUs are even less accurate. They are
-provided here to give an estimate of how long it might take to install a
-package, but the numbers can vary by as much as dozens of minutes in some
-cases.</para>
