There are a certainly performance bugaboos at the moment (I've been keeping your email in my inbox as a reminder :-) )One thing just jumped out at me though, the environment variable we're checking for cores on windows in NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS, not NUM_CPUS (at least for the makefile step in

Hey Bradley, Thanks, I can build again from the command line. My CPU utilization is still annoying low. I made sure and NUM_CPUS is 4. Compare this to the Linux make build, which keeps my 4 cores at 100% cpu all the way through. Thanks -- dean On Sun, Jun 28, 2009 at 2:06 AM, Bradley

Hi Dean, So I've dropped in a change that switches directories to have name like: (base) (test_shell) This will allow you to run things at the command line again. I don't find this choice particularly ascetic myself. But the options where limited, because the following characters cannot appear

This also broke building from the command line. I usually never open Visual Studio as an IDE. I build on the command line with something like: devenv chrome\\chrome.sln /Build release /Project test_shell It looks like project names like test_shell now have complicated names like test_shell

[resend to chromium-dev from correct address; apologies if you get a dup.] I just landed a change (r18813) that may take care of a good number of the spurious rebuilds. Some of the .dll files are built as 'loadable_module' targets, which basically means they don't have any actual code (e.g. only

Ok so I've tracked down the issue with 'test_shell' not working as a command line target.The issue is that folders in the solution hierarchy apparently cause an ambiguity so devenv doesn't know which one you're referring to, the test_shell folder or the test_shell project. So for instance
