openmosix problem

[linux4u1]

i set up a 5 computer openmosix cluster to handle making gentoo packages for my other systems that will just be clones (it works nice to ). everything works nice but i get failed compiles on sever things (ran into this problem before w/openmosix) qt / mozilla / and gnome (gtk+ compiles though along with x and gcc)
im pretty sure this is a openmosix problem but im not sure i have tried doint on 3 diff machine with the cluster shutdown ( currently rebuilding a whole system from scratch to test without openmosix)

basicly what im doing is building all packages on the server with -b option then using nfs and also mfs (mosix file system only on openmosix systems)
i bind the directory with the servers package directory and i use all buiilt packages for instilling on my other machines ( all packages are built to march=i686 ) sence i have many computers p2 and above useing this method saves lots of time and quickly installs and updates systems but maybe openmosix is not ready for this yet

the systems are (systems runing i386 kernel´s w/openmosix all same openmosix config options )

p3-933 512mb ram portage package server (1.4-rc2)
p3-450 128mb ram openmosix slave (1.4-rc-2 using package from server)
k6-2-500 128mb ram gentoo workstation (1.2)
dual p2-350 256mb ram openmosix slave (1.2)
amd-tbird (900) 256 mbram openmosix slave /well become workstation (1.4rc-2)

soon to add many more systems / all systems on a 100mbs network

Some compilation-processes dont like high j-values in MAKEOPTS.

Second, distcc is much more efficient than openmosix when compiling: compile-threads dont't live long enough to be effectively migrated.


Some facts:
emerge kdeadmin (on 2 more or less identical machines):
1 machine: 42 minutes
openmosix (2 machines): 38 minutes
distcc (2 machines): 25 (!) minutes
