I've been compiling Waterfox in FreeBSD for about the past 9 hours or
so. I hope I live long enough to see if it works.

Sounds long. What kind of hardware or VM are you doing it on?

I think it's because the install is new and all the required tools need
to be compiled also. I woke up to a Y/N prompt for something, so it's
still going :)
I also see my ports dir is now 55G.
It's a KVM on a reasonably fast system with lots of memory. Local
desktop. I'm just playing around with FreeBSD right now to get a feel
for it.

I'm taking bets as to when this will complete :) (not yet)
