FWIW, I run an old first-gen 32-bit-only atom netbook here too.  But I 
couldn't tell you how long kde or anything else takes to build on it, 
because I have a 32-bit build-image chroot on my main 6-core Athlon fx 
with 16 gigs RAM and dual SSDs in btrfs raid1 mode.  That's where I do 
all my atom/netbook targeted update builds, then rsync them across to the 
netbook.  Tho I only actually update the netbook every year or longer... 
it's still running kde 4.6, IIRC, and I really should update it again, 
one of these days...
