Don't > forget to use upper case (else it won't work) Sure that repeating -- -P6 has any effect? Never tried that. If so, that would probably add to the 36 ... With a quad core I'm using build -P3 -- -P2 in the background to keep my machine responsive for other tasks, or build -P4 -- -P3 for a bit heavier load.
