Hello, guys Recently, I am working on some slight modifications of Hotspot VM without touching the JDK part. So, I have to compile Hotspot quite frequently. However, the build is awfully slow on my machine with a Intel 2.4G dual core CPU, 3G memory, and OpenSUSE11. It takes about 2-3 hours for one build.
Here is the relevant fragment of my build script: ================================== export MAKE_VERBOSE=true export DEBUG_GDB3=true export ARCH_DATA_MODEL=32 export ALT_PARALLEL_COMPILE_JOBS=4 export HOTSPOT_BUILD_JOBS=4 export BUILD_HOTSPOT=true export BUILD_LANGTOOLS=false export BUILD_JDK=false export BUILD_JAXP=false export BUILD_JAXWS=false export BUILD_CORBA=false export BUILD_DEPLOY=false export BUILD_J2SE=false export DEV_ONLY=true export SKIP_DEBUG_BUILD=false export SKIP_FASTDEBUG_BUILD=true ================================== Any ideas on how to tune this to speed up the build? Or, are there problems with the script? Thanks! Peng Du 2/7/2009
