Description from the bug: When building the JDK and running `configure` the output includes (example):
Build performance summary: * Cores to use: 4 * Memory limit: 32768 MB The "Cores to use" value is misleading; it is not actually the number of cores specified using `--with-num-cores`, but instead the number of jobs, which (unless explicitly specified), is calculated based on the available memory and the number of cores. ------------- Commit messages: - 8270438: "Cores to use" output in configure is misleading Changes: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/5301/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.java.net/?repo=jdk&pr=5301&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8270438 Stats: 1 line in 1 file changed: 0 ins; 0 del; 1 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/5301.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk pull/5301/head:pull/5301 PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/5301
