If I read you right, you didn't ``make -jX buildworld'',

Buildworld does a lot of I/O, so disk speed is relevant.
Yes, i just made "make buildworld".
So i should use make -j2 on the S1(dual core) and -j4 on S2 (2xdualcore)?
And it also makes sense what you say about the I/O.
It really depends on the system. On my dual-core systems, I use
devel/ccache and found that -j8 gave the best performance.
