Hello all,
I dont know if everyone knows this:
I have a dualcore CPU now and was wondering how to use both cores for
compiling for example lazarus.
make -j2 all
uses both cpus and works great with lazarus :)
for a quad-core use option: -j4
hope someone finds this useful
It won't make a big difference. (only making components I think)
All lcl units are compiled by fpc through the allunits.pp "project" (we
use this to let fpc figure out the dependencies)
The same counts for the ide.
I hope when specifying -j2 it builds the lcl first and after that the
lcl/interfaces. If not, it wont work.
So, you won't gain much.
