Hello, There was recently discussion as to how configure could be parallelized. I ran a series of build time measurements on a 32-core machine, with make -jX, with X in [1..32], and the results are available at: http://hubble.gforge.inria.fr/parallel-builds.html There are also insightful per-package details: http://hubble.gforge.inria.fr/parallel-build-details.html There are packages whose configuration phase is noticeably longer than the build time. OTOH, packages with a long build time (with a sequential time in boldface) donât scale well either, but that is not configureâs fault. Thanks, Ludoâ. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
