Regarding ports, I think I'll take the long route. This box is my main

be easier to make portmanager rebuild everything in pristine mode. It
will take a long time, but I accept this. Before this is done, I run the
built-in routines in /usr/ports - clean out */work/* and distfiles.
It's a fast machine though - shouldn't take too long. What I'm thinking
about now is speeding up make. There are two cores in this CPU. Can I
specify -j2 ? Is it one per core or more?
This is now supposed to happen automatically on ports that are safe to
build with multiple jobs. Offhand I don't know how to show what's
really happening other than something crude like watching top.
