https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D255046 --- Comment #1 from Mathieu Arnold <mat@FreeBSD.org> --- I don't think ports SHOULD fetch distribution files in parallel, not everyo= ne has DSL or faster internet connections, and not everyone needs to be fast. We could add an option to do it, but you already can do fetch in parallel yourself. `make fetch-list` returns the list of commands it will run to fet= ch distfiles, one per line. So, all one needs is to add an & at the end of each lines, and run it in a shell. For example by doing: make fetch-list | sed -e 's/$/ \&/' | sh If you only want the command to return when it has finished, this can be expanded to something like this: {make fetch-list | sed -e 's/$/ \&/'; echo wait} | sh --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.=
