They used to whiz by on my screen in a minute or so, but now it takes about 10 minutes, and more to the point, it involves a massive amount of disk activity. My core2quad desktop couldn't play an mp3 file while building fonts with -j3 ! Might it be building the same font multiple times (with different threads creating and deleting the same temporary files?), or are we generating fonts at twice the resolution of the previous one, or...? It's been a few weeks since I tried building stuff from scratch, which leaves a large window of work on the build system and fonts. Is this with a straight make ? I ran it yesterday and didn't see a slowdown, and I always check the time it takes. -- Phil Holmes ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

I ran it yesterday and didn't see a slowdown, and I always check the time it takes. I did a make on my 1cpu LilyDev VM (when I am work) on 1GB of memory today and didn't see any significant slow down on a 'make'. It takes about 10 minutes. -- -- James ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

Yes, a straight make, after completely removing the build dir and running autogen.sh --noconfigure. Maybe my hard disk is just about to die. - Graham ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

I've checked now and make from scratch took 6 minutes, as usual on my machine. Janek ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
