> Is there anyway to use all 4 cores on my quad core during compilation? It appears I am only using 1 core. I am hoping there is a flag I can pass to the makefile. Look at the "-j" option to the make command. It takes a numeric argument that signifies how many simultaneous jobs should be running. ccache is another useful project that can considerably speed up compilation by caching previous compiler output: http://ccache.samba.org/
