hi!

i did play with it a bit but left scons aside.

after a few tests i kicked out gnumake aswell as it used up all memory
on my machine and started swapping...

also i noticed that dmake 4.5 and dmake 4.6 make a huge difference.

running run_test.sh on a local disk:

                complete                hot
touch.sh         15m30s                 -
gnumake         132m45s                 1m45s
jam              22m42s                 0m12s
dmake 4.5       109m54s                 1m47s
dmake 4.6         7m52s                 1m45s

testing the same thing on a samba volume was rather ugly:

                complete                hot
touch.sh         26m16s                 -
jam              52m18s                 2m34s
dmake 4.5       121m42s                 8m58s
dmake 4.6        22m31s                 8m18s

running this test with more than one process gave slight improvements
even on a machine with a single cpu.

tschau...
