    I’ve never had high end machines but I don’t remember installing being a chore on Gentoo even 20 years ago. Just

    emerge openoffice

        Yes, but there aren’t that many programs that take long time to compile and those that do you install before hand. It’s not like the size of the compile is hard to predict.
