The following issue has been SUBMITTED. ====================================================================== http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=14178 ====================================================================== Reported By: nob Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: CMake Issue ID: 14178 Category: CMake Reproducibility: always Severity: tweak Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2013-05-30 10:51 EDT Last Modified: 2013-05-30 10:51 EDT ====================================================================== Summary: Eclipse CDT Generator uses fixed CPU Count for parallel build Description: When using the Eclipse CDT4 (Unix Makefiles) Generator, CMake always generates a parallel build. While this is a generally a good idea, the number of CPUs may be to high on some projects/systems.
Here I have a Core i7 4-Core Laptop, where the ProcessorCount module reports 8 Processors. Using a parallel build with "make -j8", all compile jobs eat up all available RAM of the system, making it unusable. It would be nice if the number parallel job count could be configurable and just falls back to the number ProcessorCount reproduces. Steps to Reproduce: - Use Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles Generator - In Eclipse, look into Project/Properties/C/C++-Make Project/Make Builder --> Build command has a fixed "-j<num>" argument which seems not configureable. On each reinvocation of cmake, the parallel job number is set back to its default. ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2013-05-30 10:51 nob New Issue ====================================================================== -- Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cmake-developers
