Creating the javadocs can be very slow, if you are running
javadoc, consider skipping that step.
But there is no information I can find about how to skip that step: I
think it's NO_DOCS=true.
Look in make/jdk-rules.gmk lines 40 ... 44
40 # GENERATE_DOCS determines if we ask for the docs target
41 DOCS_TARGET = docs
42 ifeq ($(GENERATE_DOCS),false)
43 DOCS_TARGET =
44 endif
If you do not want docs generated, add "GENERATE_DOCS=false" to your
make command.
In case you decide to generate docs at some point, I suggest using a
build system with plenty of RAM and increasing max heap size during the
build. The default -Xmx of '612m' is too small for javadoc. Specify a
value along the lines of MAX_VM_MEMORY=2048 or larger if you have the
resources.
Hope this helps-
