The package is actually called mozilla-firefox. And it compiles pretty
quickly:

     Sun Oct 18 06:14:25 2009 >>> www-client/mozilla-firefox-3.0.14
       merge time: 45 seconds.

Interesting... It took approx 7 hours on my PC.

Perhaps you already have 100% of the dependencies compiled already?

Yes, that's *only* the firefox package. It's also possible that my PC is
faster than yours.

Noted, XMMS takes longer :):
     Sun Oct 18 08:55:33 2009 >>> media-sound/xmms-1.2.11
       merge time: 51 seconds.

And even OpenOffice.org took under 1 hour:
     Thu Oct 15 14:35:38 2009 >>> app-office/openoffice-3.1.1
       merge time: 53 minutes and 28 seconds.

	I don't know if you're joking or not, but that's highly misleading. 
Firefox needs xulrunner (and they release a new xulrunner with each new 
Firefox). xulrunner takes a while:

     Fri Aug  7 11:27:09 2009 >>> net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.1.2
        merge time: 1 hour, 4 minutes and 47 seconds.

Well yes, it surely does.

     Sun Oct 18 06:13:40 2009 >>> net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.0.14
       merge time: 6 minutes and 27 seconds.

	Try installing a newer version? Not sure why it's so fast for you - 
other than perhaps you have a much faster machine...

	On mine it typically takes an hour.

If you try to fail, and succeed, which have you done?

	That would make some sense...except that I've enabled it as well.

	Doesn't ccache only have a significant impact if you're recompiling the 
same version?
