Using a bit of parallelism shouldn't harm (we put a heavier load on them, but for a shorter time), so using -j2 or -j3 seems OK to me, but I wouldn't go higher to remain gentle with Travis CI. Note: I'm writting this without having a real idea of what consequence of -jN have on their infrastructure, take my writing as wild guess, not as real arguments. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
