I did a buildworld/buildkernel last week with "-j 8" on my dual celeron system and
all, apparently, went fine.
It saved about 30-40% of time. Version 4.2-stable.
Could someone, please, explain to me why the "-j" stuff could be dangerous ?
It's not much clear to me why doing more then one "cc" (example) at time could break
the final object code.
(no flame, it's a very honest question! :-) )
TIA a lot! :)

I did with 8 and now trying with 10 (I've only 96Mb RAM)
