Welcome to the community man :)

yes if they also make the compile separating into jobs
with make -jn with n the numbers of your machine cpus
that's going to accelerate the compile time

Thanks! I finally figured out how to get EPEL and ELGIS repos working 
together, got everything downloaded, and it looks like I've got a full 
GDAL packge with everything working! (This was my first experience with 
yum and "repos".) Since I never knew any better I've always just built 
from source and then fought with the system trying to resolve 
dependencies. Yum is almost too easy! It sure looks like a better way to 
manage software too.

Thanks for doing all this work supporting CentOS GIS software. You've 
helped me immensely!
