I use -j 2 all the time but you are right that the console is kinda messed up. I doubt that there is a real "Fix" for this as you are basically having two threads both write to the same console at the same time. You are just going to have to live with it.

 BTW. try make -j 4 or -j 8 some time and watch the output.  ;-)

Dear cmake users,

I would like to use the -j option of make in order to speed up
compilation process using 2 jobs better than 1 (hyperthreading
processor). Problem is the console output is totally messed up
(percentages, name of the file to compile/link etc...). Would you share
a tip to make this work better ?

Thank you,

best regards
Yann Renard
