Hello.

I'm new to distcc (and ccache), and I am in the process of trying it out for the second time. The first time didn't work, so I've taken a closer look.

Also, I'm using Gentoo, also new to me.

In configuring participating hosts, I've set each host to fully utilize available distcc hosts, to complete their builds. Yet it occured to me, that references could become circular. In other words, if host A hands off to host B and host C, what is to prevent hosts B and C from handing off back to A or each other? Also, the MAKEOPTS="-j##" thingee. Each host has that value set to the network availability of fellow distcc partcipants. When it receives a compile job, does that option come into play? Or is distcc smart enought to determine optimal localhost settings?

I'm not a memeber of this list, so I hope replies are posted via email that I'll receive.
