I was under the impression that all build scripts were simply single-threaded. Including the following in mk.conf should help a bit: MAKE_FLAGS+=-j5 Last time I uncommented it in my setup though, it made many packages break during compilation. COPTS+=-g INSTALL_UNSTRIPPED=yes These are good too so that people don't need to recompile to get helpful debugging info. -- Robert Luciani Chalmers University of Technology, SWE Department of Computer Science and Engineering http://www.rluciani.com/rluciani.asc
