Ahaa, well that was what I meant, with good makefile dependencies at least GNU make can be instructed with "-j N" parameter to run max of "N" jobs at the same time, but surely it has major advantage only if you have multiple CPU cores/threads ... And it can be a problem if the dependency rules or the logic of Makefiles aren't done corrently ... Btw, it was also a good way to stress the machine with "-j 64" or so with a large project (like compiling Linux kernel) it really helps to trigger hardware problems :) :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo@musoftware.de with the string "unsubscribe cc65" in the body(!) of the mail.Received on Sun Nov 28 15:52:45 2010
