time make rpm

[dickinsd]

Ok this is not a problem which is why I have stuck it here.

just wondering what on earth this means:

I did time make rpm (kernel)

got this at the end:

real 99m33.709s
user 77m54.191s
sys 8m51.826s

What the hell?

Which one is the actual time it took to complete?

All of them are the actual time it took to complete. I think what you might be asking is how much time on the clock on your wall did it take. If that's the case then that would be the "real" time. The other two are the amount of CPU time broken down my "user" and "system" time.
