I happen to have access to a T2000 (1 GHz, 32 strands) for a couple of days, so I ran a nightly of on20050327:
==== Nightly distributed build completed: Thu Apr 13 22:17:16 CEST 2006 ==== ==== Total build time ==== real 2:26:51 This was with the default max concurrent jobs = 4. Increasing it to 32 through $HOME/.make.machines did not decrease build time, because the build process is mostly serial as Bart noted earlier. Apart from short periods where 32 concurrent jobs can be seen utilizing the system 100%, the system is mostly idle during the build. This of course makes it a nice shared build machine running, say, 32 builds in parallel. BTW: the same build on a 2-way 900 MHz V480 takes 5:29:01.
