The best thing for now is just to use DISTCC_HOSTS="host1 localhost" and run make -j4. The local single CPU machine will have up to two jobs running at any time, but unless it is really low on memory that's not a problem. (Indeed sometimes -j2 is faster on a single CPU machine than -j1, because compilation can proceed while one job is blocked waiting for IO.) In a future release there will be a way to specify per-machine job limits, but even that will probably default to 2 jobs on single CPU machines. -- Martin _______________________________________________ distcc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.samba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/distcc
