The lack of an error message did seem odd. Thanks for the heads up. Is the Handbook out of date? According the Build World section: <quote> It is now possible to specify a -j option to make which will cause it to spawn several simultaneous processes. This is most useful on multi-CPU machines. However, since much of the compiling process is IO bound rather than CPU bound it is also useful on single CPU machines. On a typical single-CPU machine you would run: # make -j4 buildworld make(1) will then have up to 4 processes running at any one time. Empirical evidence posted to the mailing lists shows this generally gives the best performance benefit. </quote> Let me give it a try without `-j'.
