Starting from today Th builders will do parallel builds by default where possible (where parallel mean that single build is using make -jX).
x86_64 and ppc builders are doing -j1 builds because machines probably won't be able to handle higher values well. x86_64, ppc: max_jobs = 2, default 1 i486, i686: max_jobs =16, default 12 athlon: max_jobs = 8, default 6 make-request.sh has now a "-j" option that allows user to choose different value than default ones. Note that if user specifies value that doesn't match <1, max_jobs config option specified on builder> range then builder default will be used. -t -j1 can be used to test if some build succeeds without parallel make. http://ep09.pld-linux.org/~builderth/queue.html shows jobs=X value where X always show what user requested (or 0 if used didn't use -jX at all). Of course <1, max_jobs config option specified on builder> still applies so there can be jobs=1000 in queue while builder will use -j1 because that's what max_jobs said. If some app has broken build system then: * -t -j1 can be used to test if some build succeeds without parallel make * workaround in spec is to put -j1 there -- Arkadiusz MiĆkiewicz PLD/Linux Team arekm / maven.pl http://ftp.pld-linux.org/ _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list pld-devel-en@lists.pld-linux.org http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
