wow!!
Looks like I will get some improvement. I have a 2.4G HP laptop with gentoo installed.
So what I will do now it to omit the localhost form
DISTCC_HOSTS
What should be my "-j" value for this senario? 2??
Typically its CPUs + 1, so you've got host computer + distcc laptop = 2 CPUs, so set -j3
I want all my compilation on the fast machine. Should I set it -j2 ?
You should set:
MAKEOPTS="-j2" DISTCC_HOSTS="fastmachine/2" FEATURES="ccache distcc"
where fastmachine is the hostname or ip of the fastermachine. The '/2' means it can accept 2 jobs at once.
