Well Matt just released -rc1. I'm going to do some testing on that and I may test -j2 (I have a Core 2 system) after the standard tests. I'll also do some testing with setting a configure cache. Since I log everything, I'll be able to do some benchmarking too to see if the gain is significant. I'll post the results. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
