Why fork rather than cooperating?
I don't know that, I'm only working on the monitor for it. :-) What I do know is that icecream uses a distribution concept which is fundamentally different from what distcc does. icecream uses a central scheduler, which is responsible for keeping track of nodes, and dispatching work to them. I suspect this scales better for large clusters (say, more than ten nodes). - Frerich __ distcc mailing list http://distcc.samba.org/ To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/distcc
