Hi all, I used to do parallel build for my nightly with ctest by putting MAKECOMMAND:STRING=/usr/bin/make -i -j8 in my .cmake script.
Since a few month ago, it does not seem to work anymore. This is clearly visible on my submission to the ITK dashboard: http://www.cdash.org/CDash/buildSummary.php?buildid=669361 Displaying the build graph shows that the build time went from 50 to 150 min around April 5-6th. As I'm using a regularly updated Debian testing, that could be linked to the update to cmake 2.8.1. I'm not sure if there is a way to check the exact data when a package was updated for Debian. I'm now using cmake 2.8.2. Anyway, I also have a cmake 2.6 that I compiled from the source and in this case, the MAKECOMMAND is taken into account and the build is parallel, that shows that the issue is with cmake/ctest. I tried what was suggested in this thread: http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2009-December/033617.html but no success. Has anybody noticed something similar? I could find another debian build that show a compilation time increase around april on the ITK dashboad http://www.cdash.org/CDash/buildSummary.php?buildid=669205 On the VTK dashboard, at least one debian build shows significant compilation time increase (x2-3) also in April http://www.cdash.org/CDash/buildSummary.php?buildid=668868 Emmanuel _______________________________________________ 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://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
