To be fair, I didn't install it until not too long before I posted the reply to you (on the 23rd). Archlinux is a binary distro so my guess is that is when the Archlinux kernel team compiled it.

So you were having fun well enough before I was.

How long did it take to compile? I haven't compiled anything substantial size-wise in quite awhile, back when things like glibc took hours. So it would be interesting to know if things got any faster.

Have you heard any big and/or exciting things about kernel version 7?
