On a related topic, I wonder if we should add a "-j" parameter if we build BaseTools for users (e.g. "make -j4 -C BaseTools")? I've found that it can be pretty slow without it: on my system adding -j4 reduces build time from 55 seconds to 15. Going higher doesn't seem to produce much more benefit: -j32 (on a ThreadRipper system) reduces it to 12 seconds. -- Rebecca Cran -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
