How[edit]
Untested!
Become root.
sudo su
apt-cacher-ng *might* speed up compilation. Not exactly compilation, but *might* prevent downloading the same source packages over and over again from the internet.
apt-get update apt-get install apt-cacher-ng export http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:3142 apt-get update
ccache *might* help speed up compilation. Consider installation of ccache.
apt-get install ccache
There is also distcc, a distributed compile cache, but setting that up on a cluster looks more complicated. Consider using distcc, perhaps later.
Install apt-build.
apt-get install apt-build
Keep the defaults for now.
As per /usr/share/doc/apt-build/README.Debian.
echo 'Package: * Pin: origin "" Pin-Priority: 800' > /etc/apt/preferences.d/aptpinning
As per /usr/share/doc/apt-build/README.Debian.
dpkg --get-selections | \
awk '{if ($2=="install") print $1}' > /etc/apt/apt-build.list
System wide rebuild.
