Scratch that theory, that was just a transient. If anything it looks

average around 0.4 right now. I'm a bit perplexed.
Hm ... you weren't using the -l (--max-load) option were you? That
would make system load affect gmake's scheduling.  Although it's clear
when I test it that it is waiting for the bison run to finish before
launching the dependent builds, so it still seems like it must be a bug
if your copy isn't waiting for that.



No. just "make -j 4"

And it's the stock Fedora build of make.


I have just repeated this on an absolutely fresh up to date F17 machine, with no symlink stuff in play.

Steps to recreate:

   CC="ccache gcc" ../postgres/configure --enable-depend --enable-debug
   --enable-cassert --with-perl --with-python --with-tcl --with-libxml
   --with-libxslt -with-openssl --with-gssapi --with-pam --with-ldap
   make -j 4


cheers
