While building the kernel from source RPM, I run the command ps -ef | grep make in another terminal, and I do see that 4 make processes are running, with each one building objects for a different kernel source directory. However, something else seems to be single threaded which is causing the huge delay in finishing kernel build. I found that when I run top to see the upper-most cpu consumers, I see only one cc1 process at the top. So I ran ps again to see how many cc1 processes there are. Always - just one cc1 process. I would expect to see anywhere from 1 to 4 cc1 processes at a time. But that is not the case. What is forcing only a single instance of cc1 at a time? I hope the devs can have a look at either the compiler tools or the make util. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
