Um, is this for general use, or specific to your build machine? -j5 might actually slow things down for people with less than 4 cores. It's generally better to actually detect the number of cores. Make's -j option can also be memory bound, but in my experience EFL does not have that problem. In another unrelated project, using the number of free GB instead of the number of cores plus one for the -j option is better, as otherwise it slows down a lot when it starts thrashing swap. On the other hand, last time I experimented with make -j on EFL, it did not make any measurable difference beyond 2 cores and 2GB. Make -j3 to make -j12 ran at about the same speeds. Everything is so small it barely gets a chance to do much good before it's already finished with any one source file, plus the bulk of the time is spent doing non make things. -- A big old stinking pile of genius that no one wants coz there are too many silver coated monkeys in the world.
