While not necessarily being much faster for compiling, I found you
can build raspbian packages using the debian package stuff by using
qemu on another computer. If you want to build raspbian packages I
found that on my raspberrypi (a model B with 512MB of RAM) that it
ran out of memory (I believe it happened in the earlier stages where
it was getting the various source and either extracting or packing
it into a source archive) and to use swap files is very slow and
probably not good for the SD card anyway, qemu does overcome these
limits.<br>
<br>
I know that cross compiling might be faster but I never found enough
information out there to help me get such a system up and running
and I was unsure whether this would lead to a system where I could
compile a raspbian package using the debian stuff of freeswitch.
Qemu was relatively simple to set up (I think I mainly used a wiki
page from the raspberrypi section of elinux.org).<br>

For what it's worth, I've been playing with using ccache and
distcc on a beefier box to cross-compile freeswitch from my
raspi. I haven't done verifiable benchmarks, but it does seem to
cut the compile time down considerably when you offload the
compiling. Raspi seems to be gaining enough traction that it
might be worthwhile to add a wiki page or two devoted to them with
little tips and tricks to make life easier.<br>
